binotata Saussure & Zehntner, 1894: 110 , pl. 3, fig. 32 [ Holocompsa ]

Guatemala; San Gerónimo (Champion). Unspecified number of ♀. Possibly conspecific ♂.

The MHNG contains one ♂ specimen (MHNG- ARTO-20464) with labels: “Amer. trop., var. ♂, M H de Saussure” [handwritten on ruled white card]; “ Holocompsa binotata ? ♂ Sauss.” [handwritten on green paper]. The specimen is directly pinned. Both antennae, both front legs, the right middle leg and both hind legs are lost. The left forewing and right hindwing are detached and glued to a card mount secured on the original pin. This specimen is the ♂ mentioned in the original description, but because it was only considered to be probably conspecific cannot be considered a syntype. Box Blattodea 59.

There is a ♀ specimen in the NHMUK (BMNH(E)879466) with a data label “ S. Geronimo, Guatemala, Champion” [printed on white card] and referred to as a syntype in their online database .
