Symphysius serratus Broun, 1909a: 391 . Hudson 1923: 369. Hetschko 1930: 37. May 1967: 178. Ivie and Ślipiński 1990: 8. Ablabus serratus: Ślipiński and Lawrence 1997: 351 , based on synonymy of Symphysius with Ablabus . Ablabus lobifer sensu

Ślipiński and Lawrence 1997: 352, figs. 9–11, not Broun 1909 [misidentification].

Type locality: Southland .

Broun number: 2775 (as given in May 1967: 178).

Remarks: Broun mentioned that he based this species on three specimens: two specimens from “ Southland ” and one with the number “5237” on it sent by J.H. Lewis that was caked with dried sap and dirt. The two specimens from “ Southland ” were located and are mounted on the same card type, but we did not locate the specimen with the “5237” number as Broun described. There are two specimens with “Greymouth Lewis” labels, one of which bears a “37” label, the other lacking this label and mounted ventrally on the card. We assume that Broun miscounted the number of specimens and/or also quoted or miswrote the Lewis batch label. In order to stabilize this name, a lectotype and two paralectotypes are here designated from the material of Symphysius serratus .

Type material examined: Lectotype ( BMNH): card-mounted, “Type [round label with red border] // 2775. [in Broun’s hand] // Southland // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Symphysius serratus . [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( BMNH): mounted venter-up, “2775. [in Broun’s hand] // Southland // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Symphysius serratus [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( BMNH): mounted venter-up, “2775. [in Broun’s hand] // 37. [handwritten] // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Greymouth. Lewis - [in Broun’s hand]” .
