Pyrops gunjii ( Satô & Nagai, 1994) View in CoL stat. rev.

Fulgora whiteheadi gunjii SATÔ & NAGAI, 1994: 308 View in CoL ; figs 2, 9 (Type in EUM) [described, illustrated and compared with P. whiteheadi View in CoL and P. effusus View in CoL , the latter mentioned as “ F. whiteheadi viridicastanea View in CoL ”].

Pyrops whiteheadi gunjii View in CoL – NAGAI & PORION, 1996: 26; pl. 17 fig. 210 [transferred to Pyrops View in CoL ; listed, illustrated]. — LIANG 1998: 45 [listed, erroneous mention of new combination already proposed by NAGAI & PORION (1996)!].

Pyrops gunjii View in CoL – CONSTANT 2015: 6 [keyed]; 9 [good species, diagnosed, description of male genitalia, distribution]; fig. 3 [illustrated], fig. 6 [distribution map], fig. 8 [male genitalia], fig. 10 B [live specimen].

Pyrops effusus gunjii View in CoL – BOSUANG et al., 2017: 69 [subspecies of P. effusus View in CoL : error!]; fig. 91 [habitus], figs 92–93 [live specimen].

NOTE. A full taxonomic treatment of P. gunjii View in CoL , including the description of the male genitalia was recently provided to support its status as a valid species from original placement as a subspecies of P. whiteheadi (Distant, 1889) ( CONSTANT, 2015) View in CoL . However, BOSUANG et al. (2017) were not aware of this taxonomic change and considered the taxon as a subspecies of P. effusus View in CoL without providing any evidence to their new view. The latter action is hence considered erroneous and the status of a valid species is here reinstated for P. gunjii View in CoL following the conclusions of my 2015 study.
