monticola View in CoL huasteca Saussure, 1888: 63 View in CoL [ Trimerotropis ].

Tellus mexicana , lacus Meztitlani. Unspecified number of ♁.

There are no specimens placed under this name in the MHNG collection, but a specimen placed under “ monticola var.” is probably a syntype. A ♁ with labels: “Metzill. t. t.“ [printed on white card]; “Trimerotr. monticola ♁ var., Mexiq.” [handwritten on green paper]; “Probable syntype of T. monticola huasteca Sauss., 1888 , Hollier 2010” [handwritten on red paper]. Specimen set with right wings spread and left wings folded; the left antenna, the last tarsal segment of the right front leg, the last tarsal segment of the left hind leg and the tarsi of the right hind leg are missing. T. huasteca was considered a valid species by Hebard, who had examined the specimen (1932: 260) and by Rentz & Weissman (1980: 234), but it does not appear on OSF. Box V 24 .
