opulentus (Neoglypsus) Distant 1890a: 159. [ Fig. 137 ]

Original data: “Hab. Chang Yang. (Pratt.)” [syntype (s)]

LECTOTYPE ♀ (designated by Thomas 1994: 174): purple-margined lectotype disc; red-margined type [H. T.] disc; “Chang Yang (Pratt)”; “ opulentus Dist. [Distant’s handwriting]” “Distant Coll. 1911–383.”; “NHMUK 010592303”. Genital plates disjointed ( Fig. 137 ).

Current status: Dinorhynchus opulentus (Distant, 1890) (see Schouteden 1907: 64).

Note: Thomas (1994: 174) stated: “ Holotype female of Neoglypsus opulentus was examined in BM(NH).” It is clear that Thomas examined the specimen labelled as type that we have found. There is no evidence that this was the only specimen Distant used to describe the species, but this is the only specimen of this species in the collection and we therefore accept that, by calling the specimen “ Holotype ”, Thomas has designated a lectotype by inference of “ holotype ” ( ICZN 1999: Art. 74.6).
