• Scrutiny:
  • Braun, 2014, The species C. terebrans (Saussure 1897) was missing in this database. One of its syntypes was labeled as lectotype by T.J. Walker in 1970 (Hollier et al. 2013), and the holotype of C. tenebrans Otte & Perez-Gelabert was collected by Walker in 1969. The latter apparently had an identification label with O. terebrans, so that "tenebrans" would be a misspelling. "Terebrans" (perforated) might refer to the tympana "magno instructae" mentioned in Saussure's exceedingly brief description.
