REMARKS: Rondani (1861e: 145) described both sexes of Stevenia parmensis without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length. Pape (1989: 357) designated a lectotype (♂) and paralectotypes (2 ♀♀) but did not mention an additional ♀ specimen in the MZUF (this additional specimen is a paralectotype).
