Hung.", determined as Proconia lutzi Schm. by YOUNG in 1969, HNHM. Paralectotype male from Esmeralda (Venezuela), MMBC. Teletusa excavata atra MELICHAR, 1925^: 345, now synonym of Deselvana excavata (PELETIER & SERVILLE) (YOUNG 1968) [Proconiini]. Original data: Brasilien: Rio de Janeiro (Mus.Paris) Petropolis (Budapest und Helsinki). Lectotype male designated by YOUNG &c SOÓS (19644: 466), HNHM. Stictoscarta exoleta MELICHAR, 19264: 278 [Proconiini]. Original data: Columbia: (Budapest). Lectotype female herein considered to be designated by YOUNG ( 19684: 54), "'Columbien'/ exoleta det L. Melichar/ Typus [red label] / Stictoscarta exoleta [handwritten]/ Lectotypus". No specimens found in MMBC. Lectotype designation herein formally accepted. Comments - For the same reasons given above for Coelopola adspersa var. peruviana, we consider YOUNG's act of explicitly referring to the apparently single specimen belonging to the syntype series as the "lectotype" as a valid lectotype designation for this species. Oncometopia expansa MELICHAR, 19254: 377 [Proconiini]. Original data: Peru: Callanga, Vilcanota (Budapest) Champada (coll m.) Chanchamayo (Haupt) Mexico spec ex Fowler. Syntype male, "Peru Callanga/ expansa m. det L. Melichar/ Lecto [handwritten] + TYPUS", HNHM. Paralectotype female, "Peru Vilcanota/ expansa M. det L. Melichar/ Para [handwritten] + Typus", HNHM. Both specimens were determined as O. facialis (SIGNORÉT, 1854c) by SCHRÖDER. Four female syntypes from Chapada (Peru), one labelled as "Lectotype" by PAVEL LAUTERER in 1962, MMBC. Comments - Although SCHRÖDER determined these 0. expansa specimens as O. facialis, he did consider this species as a separate subspecies from the nominotypical subspecies (SCHRÖDER 1959). It is interesting that both male and female syntypes were determined by SCHRÖDER, as he states that males of expansa are unknown (SCHRODER 1959: 28). SCHRODER'S descriptions and illustration (of the female genitalia) based on specimens of the "Melichar collection" enabled EMMRICH (1975*3) to treat it as a separate species after associating male specimens. Specimens in the HNHM are located under "facialis". Cardioscartafulgida MELICHAR, 19324: 296 nowRamosulus YOUNG, 19774 [Cicadellini]. Original data: Peru: Callanga (Budapest + coll m.). Lectotype male designated by YOUNG & SOÓS (19644: 466), HNHM. Paralectotype female from Callanga (Peru), MMBC. Proconia fusca MELICHAR, 1924*2: 204 [Proconiini]. Original data: Ecuador: Pastigga (Budapest & Brussels) Peru: Madre de Dios, Pachitea (Budapest). Lectotype male designated by YOUNG & SOÓS (19644: 466).
