Amastus cornea (Herrich-Schäffer, [1853]) Phaegoptera cornea Herrich-Schäffer, [1853] a: wrapper to pl. 14, fig. 61, 62. TYPE LOCALITY. — Venezuela. TYPE SPECIMEN. — Neotype male designated by Toulgoët ([1988]a: 367) (MNHN). REMARKS Although Toulgoët believed that the syntype of cornea had been destroyed, without checking the Kaden collection in ZIL, it is likely that this conclusion is justified. Indeed, in ZIL collection, no male or female specimen of A. cornea could be found. Strand has described an infrasubspecific name associated with this taxon: Hemihyalea cornea ab. darabana Strand, 1919: 60. — Type locality: Mexico. — Type specimens: Undisclosed number of syntypes (BMNH; one of the syntypes labeled TYPE). This name should be associated with the species Pseudohemihyalea mansueta (Edwards, 1884).
