Seira meyerae

(orig. descr.),

examined.
Remarks.
Lepidokrugeria
was previously synonymized with
Seira
by Soto-Adames
et al.
(2008), but this taxonomic act was
not
considered by Bellinger
et al.
(
1996‒2018
), who included
Lepidokrugeria
in
Lepidocyrtinae
Wahlgren. Thus,
Seira meyerae
comb. nov.
is herein transferred to
Seira
since it presents typical characteristics of the genus, especially overall dorsal macrochaetaxy pattern and mucro falcate.
