Tachythereua maroccana Verhoeff, 1905b
Type material.
Syntypes, 1♂, 8♀, ZMB 3866-68; Tanger [Tangier] (3866, 3877) and Casablanca (3868) [both Morocco]; leg. Quedenfeldt.
Present name.
Junior synonym of Tachythereua hispanica (Meinert, 1886); synonymized by Stoev and Geoffroy (2004).
Remarks.
The collector was the explorer and ethnologist Max Quedenfeldt (1851-1891) who was active in Morocco (and neighboring lands) and was widely regarded by contemporaries as one of the most knowledgeable people about this country. Material from Tangier suggests a specific collecting trip made in 1885.
