Lispochroa blandula Breddin, 1907b: 216 . Syntypes: ♂, ♀, Ceylon [= Sri Lanka]: Anuradhapura and Kanthaley; depository not stated.

Current status. Diniella blandula (combination proposed by Scudder 1962: 767).

Type material examined. Lectotype (present designation): ♂, “Kanthaley / Ceylon Horn” (DEIC). Paralectotypes: with label identical with that of lectotype (8 ♂♂ 4 ♀♀ DEIC, 1 ♂ DEIC> HNHM); “ Ceylon / W.

Horn”, “Anu- / radhapura” (5 ♂♂ 5 ♀♀); “ Ceylon / W. Horn”, “Anu- / radhapura”, “ Diniella sp. [hw] / J. A. Slater det., 19 [pr]” (1 ♂, Hemi-00044, DEIC) (Figs. 13–14).

Remarks. This species was described from an unspecified number of specimens of both sexes from Anuradhapura and Kanthaley in Ceylon [= Sri Lanka]. Several specimens from both localities fitting with the original description were examined and recognized as syntypes of L. blandula . One of them is here selected as the lectotype. This species has only been recorded from Sri Lanka (Distant 1910; Scudder 1962; Slater 1964, 1979).
