Remarks Since Ferrière’s paper was published in two parts, the name of this species was introduced first as a nomen nudum (Ferrière 1933a: 86) and made available shortly after (Ferrière 1933b: 104). This species was described from six females and three males, of which four females and two males were found. Although Ferrière labelled one specimen “type” and five “cotype”, there is no type designation and all the types are syntypic. Nor does the mention of a type and paratype by Huggert (1982) count as an original holotype designation since it is not in the original description. All the syntypes are mounted on card points: the first female is entire; second female entire; third female missing head and gaster; fourth female missing left hind wing and left fore wing and antenna mounted on a microslide attached to the same pin; first male missing left antenna beyond a5; second male missing right antenna, gaster and hind legs, the antenna and dissected gaster are mounted on a separate slide.
