fumaria Melichar, 1902, p. 122 (Paratella) Lectotype 6 - (1) Australia / Biro 1900 (2) N. S. Wales / Parramatta (3) fumaria / det. Melichar (4) typus (red-bordered label). (Dissected) The lectotype genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 7). The genitalia preparation was lost accidentylly after being drawn. Paralectotypes (2 o ) are in the Paris Museum. This species is the same as Paratella modesta Melichar, and is designated as the junior synonym. It belongs to an undescribed genus in the Sephena complex. New synonym. guttifera Melichar, 1902, p. 126 (Sephena) Holotype <j> - (1) Roon / ex. coll. Fruhstorfer (2) guttifera / det. Melichar (3) typus (red-bordered label). The holotype was illustrated by Melichar (Pl. IV, fig. 5). I believe that the holotype is properly associated with a male specimen from Nabire, S. Geelvink Bay, New Guinea, collected by Gressitt and in the Bishop Museum. The genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 10).The species belongs to an undescribed genus in the Sephena complex. illota Melichar, 1902, p. 165 (Uxantis) Holotype o - (1) Roon / ex coll. Fruhstorfer (2) illota Mel / det. Melichar (3) typus (red-bordered label). I believe that the holotype is properly associated with a male specimen from Ambolna collected by Muir and in the Bishop Museum. The genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 14). indieata Melichar, 1902, p. 113 (Colgar ) Lectotype o - (1) Batjan / Aug-Septbr / ex coll Fruhstorfer (2) indicata / det. Melichar (3) typus (red-bordered label). The syntype (presumably a male) recorded in the Brussels Museum was not found. I consider indicata to be a junior synonym of Colgar diversa (above) because the lectotypes appear to be the same and the locality labels are identical. New synonymy (= Neomelicharia). infixa Melichar, 1901, p. 227 (Bythopsyrna ) Holotype ^ - (1) Borneo / Xantus (2) infixa / det. Melichar (3) typus (red-bordered label). The anal segment (wax plate) of the holotype is missing. The tegminal markings superficially resemble those of some species of Bythopsyrna . This may have led to erroneous placement of the species in that genus. However, the presence of two lateral spines on the hind tibiae, along with other characters, indicates that the species belongs to an undescribed genus. interstincta Melichar, 1902, p. 126 (Sephena ) Lectotype 6 - (1) N. Guinea / Biró 96 (2) Seleo / Berlinhaf (3) interstincta / det. Melichar (4) typus (red-bordered label). (Dissected) Paralectotype ^ - Same labels as the lectotype. The lectotype genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 8). This species belongs to an undescribed genus in the Sephena complex. lurida Melichar, 1902, p. 128 (Sephena ) The syntype specimen recorded by Melichar from the Budapest Museum was not found. A male specimen fitting the description and bearing the exact label data as originally described was found at the Brussels Museum. luteofasciata Melichar, 1901, p. 236 (Poeciloflata viridana var.) Holotype 6 - (1) Samanga / S. Celebes / Nov 1895 / H. Fruhstorfer (2) Helena var / luteofasciata / det. Melichar (3) typus (red-bordered label). (Dissected) The genitalia of the holotype are illustrated (Fig. 4). The apical cross bands of the tegmen are faintly discernible, but are the same banding pattern as modesta. No differences in genitalia were found, and the species is considered to be a junior synonym of Poeciloflata modesta (Donovan). New Synonymy. maculatum Melichar, 1902, p. 2 (Phlebopterum) Holotype o - (1) Nord Celebes / Toli-Toli / Nov.-Dez. 1895 / H. Fruhstorfer (2) maculatum / det. Melichar (3) typus (red-bordered label). The holotype was illustrated by Melichar (Pl. IV, fig. 4). The species was placed In Sephena by Melichar erroneously, apparently being misled by a superficial resemblance of the tegmina. However, the presence of two posttibial spines and other characters excludes the species from the Sephena complex of genera. The species appears to belong In an undescribed genus near Siscia . minlata Melichar, 1902, p. 120 ( Paratella ) Paralectotype o - (1) N. Guinea / Biro 97 (2) Stephansort / Astrolabe Bai (3) miniata / det. Melichar (4) typus (red-bordered label).
