emortualis Saussure, 1869 [Mantis] View in CoL .
Two probable ♂ syntypes (box 28), placed in the collection as Paramantis prasina (Serville, 1839) . Both match the measurement given in the description and each has two handwritten labels: "♂ Ile Bourbon M. H. de Saussure" and " Mantis emortualis ♂ type Sauss." (red paper). In addition, one of them bears a label " Mantis prasina Serv. Det Beier " and the other " Paramantis prasina (Serv.) R. Roy det. 1974", both handwritten. The original description gives the type locality as “Patria?” rather than the more precise provenance on the labels. M. emortualis is now considered a junior synonym of Paramantis prasina (Serville, 1839) .
