turneri (Platynopus) Distant 1911b: 351–352. [ Figs 217–220 View FIGURES 217–224 ]

Original data: “ ♁ ♀ ”; “ Hab. Queensland; Mackay (R. E. Turner, Brit. Mus .); Townsville (F. P. Dodd, Brit. Mus .).” [syntypes (male and female; two different provenances)]

SYNTYPE ♀: blue-margined syntype disc; red-margined type disc; “ Queensland. A.J Turner. 1905–125.”; “Mackay 2.99”; “ Platynopus turneri type Dist. [Distant’s handwriting]”; “NHMUK 010592437”. Fourth and fifth left antennomeres missing ( Fig. 217 View FIGURES 217–224 ) .

SYNTYPE ♁: blue-margined syntype disc; “ Queensland F. P. Dodd. 1907–54.”; “NHMUK 010592438”. Second to fifth right antennomeres, fourth and fifth left antennomeres missing; wings opened ( Fig. 218 View FIGURES 217–224 ) .

SYNTYPE ♀: blue-margined syntype disc; “ Queensland F. P. Dodd. 1907–54.”; “NHMUK 010592439”. Specimen well preserved ( Fig. 219 View FIGURES 217–224 ) .

SYNTYPE sex unknown: blue-margined syntype disc; “ Queensland F. P. Dodd. 1907–54.”; “NHMUK 010747742”. Fifth left antennomere, anterior legs, and abdomen missing (preventing the sex determination) ( Fig. 220 View FIGURES 217–224 ) .

Current status: Montrouzierellus turneri (Distant, 1911) (see Thomas 1994: 188).

FIGURES 209–216. Type and non-type specimens deposited in NHMUK. 209, Mecosoma thoracata ; 210–211, Canthecona tibialis ; 212, Arma tincta ; 213–214, Platynopus trijunctus ; 215, Glypsus truculentus ; 216, Arma turbida . Scale bars: 4 mm. typicus (Supputius) Distant 1889: 321–322. [ Fig. 221 View FIGURES 217–224 ]

Original data: “ Hab. PANAMA, Bugaba (Champion).” [syntype (s)]

LECTOTYPE ♀ (designated by Thomas 1992: 113): purple-margined lectotype disc; red-margined type disc; “Bugaba, 800-1,500 ft. Champion.”; “ Supputius typicus Dist. [Distant’s handwriting]”; “NHMUK 010592349”. Second to fifth right and left antennomeres, and right middle leg missing ( Fig. 221 View FIGURES 217–224 ).

Current status: Supputius typicus Distant, 1889 .

Note: Thomas (1992: 113) explained: “The type of Supputius typicus Distant , a female, was located in the British Museum (Natural History). It is labeled: (a) “Type,” (b) “ Supputius typicus Distant ,” (c) “Bugaba 800- 1500 ft, Champion.”” From Distant’s original description, we do not know whether Distant had one or more specimens, nor the sex. We have found only one specimen in the collection but cannot be sure it was the only one Distant had. By giving its labels data and calling the specimen “the type”, Thomas designated it as the lectotype by inference of “the type” ( ICZN 1999: Art. 74.6).
