Female syntype and syntype of undetermined sex from BRAZIL: São Paulo: Campos do Jordão: " 4964 \ SÃO PAULO \ [Campos do] Jordão \ I.06 \ Lüd-III.", "[red label] Cotypus", "[J. P. Fonseca’s handwriting] Kronides \ brevicornis Fons [eca] \ J. P. Fonseca det.". Both specimens pinned through right side of body. Female: left metathoracic leg lacking tarsomeres. Syntype of undetermined sex: right mesothoracic leg lacking tarsomeres; abdomen missing.

Female syntype, same locality as previous: " 4964 \ São Paulo \ Campos do Jordão \ [reverse] Lüdera \ leg.", "[red label] Cotypus", "[J. P. Fonseca’s handwriting] Kronides \ brevicornis \ Fons [eca] \ J. P. Fonseca det.". Doublemounted on minuten, with surface contaminants; right prothoracic leg lacking tarsomeres.

Syntype of undetermined sex, same locality as previous, "SÃO PAULO \ Campos [do] \ Jordão ", " Kronides \ brevicornis \ Fons [eca].", "Coleção \ PINTO DA \ FONSECA". Specimen pinned through right side of the body, in poor state of preservation; left prothoracic leg and right legs broken distal to coxa, left mesothoracic leg broken distal to femur, clavus and anal margin of right forewing damaged, right hindwing and abdomen absent. Remarks. Specimens of undetermined sex are likely to be females, as Fonseca (1937a) designated four females as syntypes. Five specimens labeled as types were found in the collection. The original description specifies that exemplars were collected by Luederwalt and were registered under the number 4964. One female marked as syntype (not listed here) was collected by Frederico Lane in 1947, ten years after the publication of the species description, and therefore is not considered part of the type series.
