( Figs. 147 View FIGURE 147 , 148 View FIGURE 148 )

Cryptotettix impennis Günther, 1939: 196 View in CoL . Lectotype, here designated. Male. MADAGASCAR, Toamasina, Antongil Bay . Depository: NMW.

Remarks. This species was described with three males and two females deposited in NMW ( Günther 1939). The male deposited in Vienna is selected as the lectotype ( Fig. 147 View FIGURE 147 ). The two remaining females and two males are selected as paralectotypes. According to the images on OSF, there is a male deposited in MTKD, with the same data as the original description, but with code DORSA D021XM01, which, like the specimens from Vienna, has the label “Cotypus”; possibly some of the syntype specimens from the original description were sent to MTKD.
