Kment, Petr & Kolínová, Zdislava, 2013, Catalogue of type specimens of true bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) deposited in the National Museum, Prague, Czech Republic, Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 53 (2), pp. 821-890 : 833

Anisops persica Kaiser, 1940 & Anisops persica Lindberg, 1941

Anisops persica Kaiser, 1940: 139–157 (morphology, biology, ecology). Anisops persica Lindberg, 1941: 17–18 , Figs 1–4 (original description).

Two syntypes are deposited in NMPC:

SYNTYPE (J): ‘Bushir / Iran 19.III.37 / E. W. Kaiser lgt. [hw] // Paratypus [p, red label] // Anisops / persica Lindb. J / Det. H. Lindberg. [hw] // SYNTYPUS / ANISOPS / PERSICUS / Kaiser, 1940 + Lindberg, 1941 / labelled: P. KMENT 2013 [p, red label]’.

SYNTYPE (♀): ‘Bushir / Iran 19.III.37 / E. W. Kaiser lgt [hw] // Paratypus [p, red label] // Anisops / persica Lindb. ♀ / Det. H. Lindberg. [hw] // SYNTYPUS / ANISOPS / PERSICUS / Kaiser, 1940 + Lindberg, 1941 / labelled: P. KMENT 2013 [p, red label]’.

Current status. Anisops persica Lindberg, 1941 is a junior homonym and a junior objective synonym of Anisops persica Kaiser, 1940 . Both names are junior synonyms of Anisops debilis perplexus Poisson, 1929 (see LANSBURY 1964, POLHEMUS 1995b). Neither KAISER (1940) nor LINDBERG (1941) did designate a holotype in the original publication so all the type specimens must be regarded as syntypes.
