elegans Saussure, 1869 [Acontista] .

One ♂ syntype (box 3), missing the abdomen but corresponding to the measurement in the description (30 mm from the head to the end of the wings). It carries two handwritten labels: "♂ Guyanne M. H. de Saussure" and " Acontista perspicua, Fab. (elegans, Sauss.)" (green paper). This species name is now considered a junior synonym of Raptrix perspicua (Fabricius, 1787).
