Enoclerus x-album (Gorham, 1883: 169)

( Fig. 57 )

Original combination. Clerus x-album

Types. Gorham did not specify the number of specimens in the type series. Sixteen syntypes have been found in the BMNH and MNHN. This series represents all localities indicated by Gorham except for Bugaba. Other syntypes may exist. Two specimens (on a single card mount) bear an “Ekis” determination label. It is believed that these specimens lost their Gorham label and/or were mis-sorted. As such they, too, are designated as paralectotypes.

Series locality. Zapote and El Reposo, Guatemala.; Rio Sarstoon, British Honduras (now Belize); Chontales, Nicaragua; Bugaba and David, Panama.

Type locality. Zapote, Guatemala.
