humbertiana Saussure, 1869 [Empusa] .

Two ♀ and one ♂ (box 55) are probably syntypes. Each has two handwritten labels. For the ♂: "♂ Ceylan Vge Humbert" and " Empusa unicornis Linn." (yellow paper); the first ♀: " ♀ Ceylan Vge Humbert" and " Empusa unicornis Linn." (yellow paper) and the second ♀: " ♀ Trincomalie Ceylan Vge Humbert" and " Empusa unicornis Linn." (yellow paper). E. humbertiana was synonymised with Gryllus unicornis by Saussure (1871), but the latter is a nomen dubium and both are now considered junior synonyms of Empusa (Empusa) pennata (Thunberg, 1815) (see Roy, 2004).
