REMARKS: Rondani (1863: 8) described Xylota coerulea from just the male sex, without specifying the exact number of the specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, from material received from R.A. Philippi. Costa (1866: 32) listed a single MZUN specimen numbered “637”. We also found one syntype in this study.
