mongolicus Saussure, 1888: 82 [ Sphingonotus ].

Mongolia (Pater David). Unspecified number of ♁ and ♀ .

One ♀ syntype with labels: “Mongolie, M. A. David ” [handwritten on white paper]; “ Sph. mongolicus Sss. , Mongolie “ [handwritten on yellow paper]; “Sphingonot mongolicus Sauss. ” [handwritten on yellow paper]; “ Sphingonotus mongolicus Sauss. ” [handwritten on blue paper]; “ Syntypus ” [printed on red paper]. Specimen set with left wings spread and right wings folded; the right antenna, both front legs, the right middle leg and the right hind leg are missing. The MHNG collection also contains one ♁ and three ♀ specimens from Yarkand, but these are probably not types because the latter is not in Mongolia. The original description treats both sexes and there are presumably other syntypes in the MNHN. Box V31 .
