Potamanthus castaneus F.-J. Pictet, 1843 -1845: 215-216, pl. 26, figs 4-5.

Leptophlebia castanea . – Eaton, 1871: 86 (transfer).

Paraleptophlebia castanea . – Ulmer, 1920: 116 (transfer).

Paraleptophlebia submarginata ( Stephens, 1836) View in CoL . – Puthz, 1978: 262 (synonymization).

Accepted name: Paraleptophlebia submarginata ( Stephens, 1836) View in CoL .

Locus typicus: “... au bord d’un ruisseau d’eau vive, à l’extrémité du lac de Genève, près des marais de Villeneuve…”.

Type material: Syntypes (male and female imagines, male subimago), not traced.

Remarks: As already mentioned by Puthz (1978), material housed in the MHNG consists of 10 subimagines, none of them originating from the type locality or its surroundings. Description and drawings of the subimaginal wing pattern correspond well with P. submarginata .
