A large series of this species was located. Gorham (1884) did not specify how many specimens he examined.

Here, we designate twenty-three specimens as paralectotypes. Four specimens are excluded from this series as their label data does not match that given by Gorham (1884). A male specimen bearing two “type” labels is designated as the lectotype. Labels for the designated lectotype specimen are as follows: “SYN-/TYPE” “ ♂ ” “Type” “ Chontales,/ Nicaragua./Janson.” “B.C.A.Col.III.(2)./ Photinus /volcanicus,/Gorham ♂ ” “ Photinus /volcanicus/ Gorham” “Type.”. A red label is added with the following text: “ LECTOTYPE / Photinus volcanicus Gorham / Designated by/Martin and Saxton 2020”
