REMARKS: Rondani (1863: 3) described Phalacromya subcoerulea from just the male sex, without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, from material received from M. Spinola. Costa (1866: 31) listed a single MZUN specimen numbered “603”. We also found one syntype in this study.
