Remarks.
In the original description of this species, Bates notes that it was based on two examples but did not indicate gender. A female specimen deposited in the MNHN bears a label in Bates’ handwriting indicating that it is the type (
Fig. 67b
). This female specimen is herein designated as the
lectotype
in order to stabilize the taxonomy and facilitate further identifications of this species. A second female specimen deposited at the BMNH also bears labels in Bates’ handwriting (e.g., one stating “
Chontales
Janson”), but no type label is present. This second female specimen (at the BMNH) is herein designated as a
paralectotype
.
