Hygronemobius histrionicus Zayas, 1976

Zayas, 1976: 84, fig. 76. Otte and Perez-Gelabert, 2009: 106

Syntypes males and females, from Sierra de Las Casas, Isla de Pinos [at present Isle of Youth], Cuba. [ PCFZ].

Distribution. Cuba.

Notes. F. de Zayas collected these specimens at “Sierra de Las Casas, Isla de Pinos, Cuba ” in 1957 and he described this species in 1976 without designating a type specimen. We designate four syntypes (Article 72.3 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, 1999) males and females in the Zayas collection. These crickets inhabit “the marble hills” of the Isle of Youth. Recently they have been seen at “Sierra de Caballos” and “Sierra de Las Casas”. It is likely that this is the only population of these crickets in Cuba (L. F. de Armas, personal communication, March 12, 2014).
