Phylloicus tricalcaratus (Ulmer) View in CoL

Phylloicus tricalcaratus ( Ulmer, 1905b:37) View in CoL [Type locality: Brazil; ZIUH; male; in Homoeoplectron ]. NOMEN DUBIUM

According to the curator at the Zoologisches Institut der Universität at Halle, the type of P. tricalcaratus View in CoL was probably destroyed during or shortly after World War II. I found one specimen identified by Ulmer as P. tricalcaratus View in CoL in the Museum für Naturkunde of HumboldtUniversität, Berlin, but it consists only of a head, anterior thorax, and one forewing, and is quite inadequate for identifying the species. The illustration in the original description included only the wings, and the description itself is too general for species discrimination.
