( Figs. 26–27 )

Dieuches nudipes Breddin, 1906: 325 . Syntypes: ♂, ♀, Ceylon [= Sri Lanka]: Puttalam, Nalanda, Anuradhapura and Kanthaley; depository not stated.

Current status. Metochus nudipes (combination proposed tentatively by Eyles 1973: 37).

Type material examined. Lectotype (present designation): ♂, “Kanthaley / CeylonHorn”; pinned, right antennal segments II–IV and left hind leg lacking ( DEIC) ( Figs. 26–28 ). Paralectotypes: with label identical with that of lectotype (1 ♂ 1 ♀ DEIC); “Puttalam / CeylonHorn” (1 ♂ DEIC); “Nalanda / CeylonHorn” (1 ♀ DEIC); “ Ceylon / W.Horn”, “Anu- / radhapura”, “Museum Leiden. [pr] / Dieuches [hw] / nudipes Bredd [hw] / det: [pr] Blöte [hw]” [with black frame] (1 ♂ RMNH).

Remarks. Specimens from Java mentioned in the original description are not part of the type series because it was explicitly expressed that they are doubtfully attributed to the species ( ICZN 1999, Art. 72.4.1). For further remarks see above under D. jacobsoni .
