Description: | [Montpellier] from description [France] Fabricius based this name on specimens from Montpellier, sent by Broussonet. He doesn't say where he saw them there but there is a specimen in Banks' collection in London under this name also. Usually, the specimens so marked as a MSS name in Hunter's collection by Fabricius meant he went away and based his description on them. There are a number of other insects from Broussonet in Glasgow. This specimen is probably part of the original type series. There is another example of this species (see 141659).
Many of the specimens in Hunter's eighteenth century collection were utilised by Fabricius and other contemporary entomologists for describing new species. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | ARTHINSECT : HUNTER 2007 : NEUROPTERA : OSMYLIDAE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
