content: February 5, 2008, by Reed A. Watkins: I believe that these 5 males and 2 females are Fernald's 7 syntypes. Barnes & Lindsey (1921: Contrib. Nat. Hist. Lep. N. Am. 4(4), p. 420) mention only 4 male, but 3 female, "types" in the Fernald collection. I can only guess that Barnes & Lindsey mistook one male for a female. As of this date, the lectotype and paralectotype designations on the Gielis labels are not published.
