Orthodera gunnii ( Le Guillou, 1841) nomen dubium

Le Guillou’s type specimens are missing, and his brief description is insufficient to distinguish O. gunnii from other members of the genus. It is thus designated a nomen dubium; see also comments under O. marginata . Additionally, the specific epithet is often misspelt as gunni in the non-technical literature.
