behrensi Saussure, 1884: 71-72 [ Arphia ].

California (Behrens); Ager mexicanus . Unspecified number of ♁ and ♀ .

Lectotype ♁ (designated by Otte, 1984: 312) with labels: “Napa Soda Sp., May 30/70” [handwritten on pinkish paper]; “ Californie, 602 35” [handwritten on white paper]; “ Arphia behrensi Sauss. ” [handwritten on green paper]; “ Lectotype, det. D. Otte 1982” [handwritten on red card]. Specimen set with wings spread; most of the right antenna is missing. A further three ♁ and one ♀ specimens from California present are probably part of the type series. Carbonell (pers. comm.) questioned the designation (not having recorded the first of these labels in his notes) because Otte (1984: 312) gives the date as 1970. However, the label does not specify the century and the label style and handwriting suggest a collection date in 1870 rather than 1970. Images on OSF. Box V2.
