Types.
Milan et al. (1974: 97) defined a “neotype” based on one of the specimens illustrated by Brusina (1897). It is uncertain, however, whether the specimen was part of the original type series, which would qualify it as lectotype. Nonetheless, the type fixation is insufficient with respect to Art. 75.3 of the Code. The specimen is stored in the Croatian Natural History Museum, Zagreb, coll. no. 2974-620/1.
