Hister chaloti Desbordes, 1917 and H. aequatorius Marseul, 1854

Describing, Desbordes (1917: 185) compared it with H. sibuti Desbordes, 1916 and H. loandae Marseul, 1854 . Later Bickhardt (1919b: 95) expressed a supposition that it might have been synonymous with H. aequatorius . This supposition has been wholly confirmed by the detailed examination of the type, including the genital structure (Figs. 6-10).

So, Hister chaloti Desbordes, 1917 = H. aequatorius Marseul, 1854 , syn. nov., and the name “aequatorius ” has a priority.
