26. Chalepistes tenebricus (Broun, 1893) new combination
Catoptes tenebricus Broun, 1893b:1194
Catoptes aemulator Broun, 1893b:1193 new synonym
Irenimus aemulator (Broun) ; Barratt & Kuschel, 1996:372, Barratt et al., 1998:56
Catoptes argentalis Broun, 1914:208 new synonym
Although C. aemulator has been used as a valid name previously, C. tenebricus is chosen as the senior name, as the holotype of C. aemulator is a teneral specimen and critical characters are not fully developed. The vestiture of C. argentalis is quite different in colour, shape and appearance from that of C. tenebricus ; however no clear structural characters exist to reliably separate the two.
