Remarks
Neiber (2015) regards the lectotype selection of NMW.1955.158.02113 as invalid under ICZN Art. 74.2. The true types are the syntype series from Mousson’s collection in Zurich (ZMZ 505021), which are syntypes of H. argonatula var. canariensis and according to ICZN Art. 72.7 also of ‘H.’ arguineguinensis.
