Conognatha splendens Waterhouse, 1912:59 View in CoL . [ Figure 40A & 40B View FIGURES 37–40 ]

Lectotype: “ Holo-type // Parana // Saunders. 74 18. // Conognatha splendens , ( Type ) Waterh. // NHMUK 014380336 About NHMUK // Conognatha splendens Waterhouse, 1912 LECTOTYPE det. Pineda & Matsumoto, 2020”. Lectotype here designated .

Current status: Conognatha (Conognatha) splendens Waterhouse, 1912 View in CoL ( Moore & Lander, 2010).

Comments: Moore & Lander (2010:82) designated as lectotype a specimen in the Naturhistorisches Museum (NHMB) labelled as “ Lectotype, n°1579, 23 mm, Cuiaba, Brésil ”, but it does not match the information given in Waterhouse (1912:59), who stated clearly that the specimen described measures 19 mm and the habitat is “ Parana ”. The Code states: 74.2. Lectotype found not to have been a syntype. If it is demonstrated that a specimen designated as a lectotype was not a syntype, it loses its status of lectotype. The designation of this specimen as a lectotype of Conognatha splendens is therefore revoked and a new lectotype is designated for Conognatha splendens Waterhouse, 1912 . The NHMUK specimen was chosen as lectotype because it matches the original description, including size and the information on the label matches that cited for the type. The above has no taxonomic implications because both the previous and the new lectotype seems to be the same species.
