Syntype

From collection: USNM
Notes: According to the original description, this species was described from four males. Because the USNM specimen is almost certainly part of the type series, Walsingham apparently erred in his determination of the sexes. There is a congeneric male specimen in the type collection labeled as Paedisca plumigerana Wlsm. Cal. Type - apparently a Walsingham manuscript name. Need to determine sex of photographed specimens.
