Remarks. The Naef collection contains several specimens with the same locality labels and dates as the paratypes. However, these specimens are not considered paratypes because they were identified by Linsenmaier as Holopyga chrysonota discolor only in 1979.
The locality referred to in the text as ''Moyen Atlas'' corresponds to Ifrane and Beni Mellal. Although Port Lyautey was not mentioned in the original description, we consider the specimen collected by Naef to be part of the type series, because the paratype label on this specimen matches those of the other specimens in the series (Art. 72.4.1.1).
