Treatment

Sympiezorhincus tristis Spinola ̡ 1837: 286-287

Material examined. Two males, one with the abdomen opened and the pygophore glued on a separate label, the other in fairly good condition, antennal segments missing except for the first segment of the left antenna. Green label: “ Sympiezorhincus tristis Spin. , Rachava orbicularis Amyot & Serville, D. Buquet , Brésil ” .

Remarks. SPINOLA (1837: 287) stated that the male of the species was unknown. He certainly misinterpreted the sex of the specimens. The male keeping the pygophore in the abdomen is here designated LECTOTYPE, considering there are two specimens under the same green label and to assign a single specimen of this species as the name-bearer.
