Treatment

Cloe litura F.-J. Pictet, 1843 -1845: 258-259, pl. 41, figs 1-3.

Centroptilum lituratum . – Eaton, 1871: 109 (transfer).

Accepted name: Cloe litura F.-J. Pictet, 1843 nom. dub.

Locus typicus: “… au pied du mont Salève…”.

Type material: Syntypes (male and female imago, male subimago), not traced and probably lost.

Remarks: In the MHNG eleven specimens are present under the name Centroptilum lituratum . All originate from Burgdorf (coll. Meyer-Dür) and cannot belong to the type series. All belong to the genus Baetis except for one female of Centroptilum luteolum . Seven are unidentifiable Baetis females, and three are males of Baetis alpinus . The taxon is only known from F.-J. Pictet’s description and illustrations, and the name Cloe litura F.-J. Pictet should be considered a nomen dubium.
