[ Fig. 1]   Original data: “ ♂”. “a. Congo. Presentedby Sir John Richardson, M.D.” [ syntype(s)].    SYNTYPE♂: blue-margined syntype disc; red-margined type disc; rectangular orange label “HOLOTYPUS ♂”; “ Congo/ 43 56”; “2. MACRORHAPHIS ACUTA,”; “NHMUK 010592174”. Cardedspecimen; third to fifth left antennomeres, and fourth and fifth right antennomeres missing ( Fig. 1).   Note: Walker (1867a: 129)listed a unique specimen of Dallas’s species and it is likely that Dallas just had one (especially as Dallas had stated only one measurement and noted: “Antennae pale brown, with the apex of the third and fourth joints pitchy ( fifth wanting).” [emphasis ours]. Still, we cannot be certain and therefore consider the specimen a syntype, although G. Schmitz had placed a holotypemale label on the specimen. Thomas (1994: 185)did not mention having seen the type under the material he examined. 5281716441 [381,1163,1148,1176] Democratic Republic of the Congo Presented 18 19 1 syntype 5281716347 Democratic Republic of the Congo Carded 18 19 3 syntype
