Eupines (Eupines) calcarata ( Broun, 1886)

( Figs 11–12 )

Bryaxis calcarata Broun, 1886: 831 . Raffray 1904: 244.

Byraxis calcarata : combination by Raffray 1924: 157.

Eupines calcarata : combination by Hudson 1923: 364. Hudson 1934: 182.

Eupines (Eupines) calcarata : subgeneric assignment by Nomura & Leschen 2006: 254. Maddison 2010: 417.

Type locality: [WO] Tuakau.

Broun number: 1479.

Notes: Broun mentioned that he collected two males, with only one matching this locality in the BMNH Broun collection. There is one additional specimen in the same collection with labels in Broun’s hand that do not match the locality, and hence is not considered to be a syntype. Another specimen in the NZAC with labels in Brookes’ hand matches the Broun number, but it lacks a locality label, and thus is also not considered to be a syntype. In order to stabilize this name, a lectotype is here designated for Bryaxis calcarata . The original identification label was written as Eupines , but the original combination was published under Bryaxis .

Type material examined: Lectotype ( BMNH): ‘Type [round label with red border] // 1479. [in Broun’s hand] // Tuakau // ♂ [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922––482. // Eupines calcarata [in Broun’s hand]’.
