lateritius Saussure, 1884: 92-3 [ Xanthippus ].

Amer. bor.; Nevada (coll. Brunner no 12575, Mus. Genavense). Unspecified number of ♁ and ♀ .

One ♀ syntype with labels: “ Xanthippus lateritius Sss. , Nevada ” [handwritten on white paper]; “ lateritius Sauss., Amer. sept.” [handwritten on green paper]; “TYPE Otte ‘82” [handwritten in pencil on white card]; “ Holotypus ” [printed on red card]; “ Syntype, not holotype! Hollier 2011” [handwritten on red paper]. Specimen set with wings spread; the tarsi of the left front leg are lost. This specimen is not, despite the reference in Otte (1984: 317), the holotype because both sexes are treated in the description and no holotype was designated by Saussure. Box V 6 .
