Neotype designation.

The lectotype specimen is essentially lost, as only a few legs remain glued to the point (Figure 36 ). We here designate paralectotype specimen (USNMENT00989860) as the neotype for Gryon leptocorisae . This specimen was reared from the same egg mass as the lectotype and has identical collection data.

Material examined.

Lectotype, female, H. leptocorisae : UNITED STATES: FL, Putnam Co., Crescent City, no date, reared from egg, H. G. Hubbard, USNMENT00989859 (deposited in USNM) . Neotype, female, H. leptocorisae : UNITED STATES: FL, Putnam Co., Crescent City , no date USNMENT00989860 (deposited in USNM) .
