but without abdomen, is excluded as a syntype because only a single female was specified in the original description. pallidior, Plata marginella var., MELICHAR, 1901, p. 205; Flatida marginella var. pallidior, METCALF, 1957, p. 43. - Lectotype male, paralectotype female, S. Ceylon, FRUHSTORFER, pallidior det. MEUCHAR; here designated. A depository was not specified in the original description. Specimens in the Budapest Museum are the only examples seen from Ceylon that carry MEUCHAR'S determination label. - Measurements from lectotype. Length: overall 24.0; v 0.58; f 1.99; p 1.16; m 3.82; t 19.92; pel 3.32. Width: v 1.00; f 0.62; 1

11.62. Hind leg spine formula: 2:9:3 in pad of fine spines. The lectotype genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 8). Flatida marginella pallidior (MEUCHAR) is retained as a subspecies pending revision of the genus. partita, Phyma optata var., MEUCHAR, 1902, p. 49; Lawana optata var. partita, MEUCHAR, 1923, p. 49; Lawana partita, MEDLER, 1986C, p. 166. - Paralectotype male, S. Java, 1500' 1897, FRUHSTORFER; here designated. The lectotype male from Sumatra is in the Paris Museum (MEDLER 1986c). patricia, Ityraea, MEUCHAR, 1901, p. 201; Ityraea nigrocincta (WALKER), MEDLER, 1990a, p. 151. - Paralectotypes male, 2 females, Deutsch-O.-Afrika [German East Africa]; here designated. This taxon was cataloged as a valid species by METCALF (1957). However, both SYNAVE (1954, p. 30), and MEDLER reported no discernible differences in male and female genitalia among type specimens of patricia and nigrocincta. proxima, Ormenis, MEUCHAR, 1902, S3; Anaya proximo, MEUCHAR, 1923, p. 98. - Plesiotype male, Ceylon, Pattipola, 2,000, BÍRÓ, det. MEUCHAR, here designated. MEDLER (1987) reported on the holotype female from Ceylon in the Vienna Museum. - Measurements from plesiotype. Length: overall 7.5; v 0.25; f 1.00; p 0.33; m 1.33; t 6.14; pel 2.49. Width: v 0.71; f 0.95; 1

2.82. Hind leg spine formula: 2:7:7. - The plesiotype genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 15). punctonervosus, Flatoides, MEUCHAR, 1902, p. 216, pl. IX, fig. 17; Phalaenomorpha punctonervosus, METCALF, 1957, p. 519. - Holotype male, Brazil, Espirito Santo, FRUHSTORFER. - Measurements from holotype. Length: overall 12.50; v 0.66; f 1.66; p 0.75; m 2.32; t 9.%; pel 2.66. Width: v 1.08; f 1.49; 1

4.81. Hind leg spine formula: 2:6:9. - The species was illustrated by MELICHAR. The holotype genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 3). punctulatus, Flatoides undulatus var., MEUCHAR, 1902, p. 210; Paraflatoides punctulatus, MEUCHAR, 1923, p. 118. - A syntype from Antongil-Bay was not found in the Budapest Museum. punctuligcr, Flatoides, MELICHAR, 1902, p. 215; Phalaenomorpha punctiliger, METCALF, 1957, p. 519. - A female syntype from Espirito Santo was not found in the Budapest Museum. A male syntype is in the Stockholm Museum. reversa, Uxantis, MELICHAR, 1902, p. 164, pl. VII, fig. 21; MEDLER, 1986b, p. 115; Atracis reversa, MEDLER, 1988, p. 18. - Plesiotype male, Sumatra, Montes Battak, FRUHSTORFER, here designated. The male syntype was not found during my personal search in 1988, but the collection contained a male from Sumatra that enabled study of genital characters. - Measurements from plesiotype. Length: overall 11.00; v 0.33; f 1.16; p 0.50; m 1.66; t 8.30; pel 2.16. Width: v 0.71; f 1.00; t 3.65. Hind leg spine formula: 1:5:6. - This species was illustrated by MELICHAR. The plesiotype genitalia are illustrated (Fig. 10). ricanoides, Ormenis ricanoides var., MEUCHAR, 1902, p. 94; Ormenis testacea var. varicosa (WALKER), METCALF, 1957, p. 298. - Paralectotypes, 2 females, Brazil, Espirito Santo; here designated. A male syntype is in the Hamburg Museum. serenus, Flatoides, MEUCHAR, 1902, p. 207, pl. VIII, fig. 9; Flatoidessa serenus, MEUCHAR, 1923, p. 115. - Holotype female, Madagascar, Antongil Bay, MOCQUERYS. - Measurements from holotype: Length: overall 12.0; v 1.00; f 1.83; p 0.66; m 2.16; t 9.30; pel 1.99. Width: v 1.00; f 1.29; t 3.82. Hind leg spine formula: 2:5:6. - The holotype was illustrated by MEUCHAR (1902). It superficially resembles species assigned to Flatoidessa by MELICHAR, but it does not belong in that genus. Based on genitalia characters and the reticulated network of cross veins in the precostal margin the species is here transferred to Dendrona Melichar. Dendrona serena (MELICHAR), comb. n. speciosa, Ityraea, MEUCHAR, 1901, p. 202; Ityraea nigrocincta (WALKER), MEDLER, 1990a, p. 151. - Paralectotypes, 6 females, Deutsch-O. Afrika [Tanzania], Tanga; here designated.
