Typophyllum excisum, Pictet, 1888: 26 - 27

Hollier, John, 2011, An annotated list of the Orthoptera (Insecta) species described by Alphonse Pictet (alone, and with Henri de Saussure) with an account of the primary type material present in the Muséum d’histoire naturelle in Geneva., Revue suisse de Zoologie 118 (2), pp. 345-400 : 360

excisum Pictet, 1888: 26-27 , fig. 9 [ TypophyLLum ].

Cayenne (Bar). More than one Ƌ.

There are no specimens standing under this name in the MHNG even though Vignon (1931) states that he saw more than one Ƌ specimen (only Ƌ characters were mentioned in the original description). It is probable that the syntypes are among the specimens of TypophyLLum trapeziforme (Stoll, 1787) in the MHNG collection (box E30), which are also from Cayenne (the type locality of T. excisum ), but it is not possible to identify them. The specimen in the Muséum National d’histoire naturelle (MNHN) in Paris referred to on OSF is that mentioned by Vignon (1931: 122) and not a type.

A junior synonym of TypophyLLum trapeziforme (Stoll, 1787) .
