One ♀ syntype with labels: “ Musée de Genève , No 6” [printed on white card with numeral added by hand]; “Saussure, Type” [handwritten on white card]; “ Stenobothrus tepanecus Sauss. ” [handwritten on white paper]; “ Orphulella tepanica Sauss.” [handwritten by L. Bruner on white card with printed red border]; “ Holotypus, Stenobothrus tepanecus Sauss. ” [handwritten by T. Hubbell on red card with “ Holotypus ” printed]; “Type series unspecified: treat as syntype. Hollier 2011” [handwritten on red paper]. The species name label in the insect box has the locality “ Mexique ” handwritten in the lower left corner. Specimen set with right wings roughly spread and left wings folded; most of the right antenna, both front legs, the tarsi of the right middle leg and the tarsi of the right hind leg are missing. Otte (1981: 243) is unjustified in referring to this specimen as the holotype without discussion. Box U 11 .
