{ A. lacrymosa Forel, 1899 } 3 ancient syntypes of a mixed type series (☿), which have lost their syntypical status: “ A. lacrymosa ☿ Forel type Esperanza, Colombie ([leg.] Forel) ...arton [illegible]”. Longino (2007) revised the Azteca aurita -species group, and designated lectotypes. The syntype series is a mixed one and consists of two species: Azteca pilosula Forel, 1899 and A. aurita , to which the Columbian specimens are assigned nowadays.
