Taxonomic Remarks 



Burkenroad (1939) cited 11 $ and 7 9 in Ives' 

 syntypes series, and named them "Holotypes and 

 Cotypes" of P. aztecus Ives. He mentioned a 

 "Holotype female, 'Form A,' carapace 11.2 mm." 

 I examined the syntypes, which are in the Academy 

 of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, and found 

 that Burkenroad had selected a female which he 

 labeled "lectotype" (PAXS No. 4764) . This female 

 is here designated as lectotype of Penaeus aztecus 

 Ives. The specimen actually has 21.2 nmi. c.l., and 

 on the label that accompanies it the locality is not 

 given, but since 7 9 were cited by Burkenroad, and 



I found that there are now but 6, 1 assume that the 

 lectotype was removed from Ives' lot. It should be 

 mentioned, however, that this lot has 12 instead of 



II males.
