Pseudholophylla furfuracea (Burmeister, 1855)

Holophylla furfuracea Burmeister, 1855: 426 .

Pseudholophylla furfuracea: Blackburn 1911: 196 .

Lectotype (here designated) male (Fig. 37): furfuracea T. Holl. n. [New Holland, Australia] Ull. (handwritten by Burmeister (compare Horn & Kahle 1937: Tafel XXI, Fig. 31), purple label with black border) | my lectotype label; in ZMH.

Burmeister (1855) did not define the type series, seeing an unknown number of males (vide Articles 73.1.2, 72.1.1). Britton (1978) and Houston & Weir (1992) listed a “ holotype ” male from Neu-Holland in ZMH. As Britton (1978) and Houston & Weir (1992) provided no discussion and did not label any specimen in ZMH, neither mention of a holotype constitutes a valid lectotype designation (vide Article 74.5). To stabilise nomenclature, I designate the specimen in ZMH the lectotype.
