Comments
Dessart & Masner (1965) described Ecnomothorax grangeri from two male and two female specimens, all of which are deposited at the MNHN. The genus Ecnomothorax Dessart & Masner, 1965 was later synonymized with Conostigmus by Dessart & Cancemi (1987).
The female holotype is glued to cardstock (MNHN EY25339), with one slide preparation (prép. no.6501/104) of the right antenna in poor condition (MNHN EY22448). The male allotype is contained within a vial that is point mounted through the cork (MNHN EY25340). There are four associated slides (prép. no. 6501/103), including the left antenna (MNHN EY22446), the right anterior leg (MNHN EY22445), and the last few segments of the metasoma, the pedicel and F1–5 of the right antenna (MNHN EY22444). The fourth slide, containing the male genitalia (MNHN EY22447), is in such poor condition that it is not possible to actually view the genitalia. It is worth mentioning that the microscope preparation numbers given by Dessart & Cancemi (1987) do not match the actual preparation numbers given on the specimen.
There is also a female (MNHN EY 25341) and male (MNHN EY 25342) paratype, both of which are glued to cardstock. Whole-body images were taken of the male paratype in place of the allotype. The female paratype was not imaged.
