NO. 3559 NEOTROPICAL CADDIS FLIES—FLINT 3 
Ulmer was mistaken in his belief that the original series was all 
female because there was one male in the series from Warsaw. This 
specimen has been designated lectotype. 
Although there are several small differences between the lectotype 
and topotypic examples of M. teutonia, I am synomymizing the two 
species. The differences in albolineata are in the ventral lobe of the 
tenth tergum which is much narrower, the lateral processes of the 
aedeagus which are narrower, and the ventralmost spine which is 
stouter. All of these differences, however, are quantitative in nature 
and rather minor considering the overall similarity of the genitalia.

Lectotype: ‘‘Bilimek Mexico 1871 Stadt,” “pulchra? det. Brauer,”’ 
“mexicana det. Ulmer,” “Lectotype Wormaldia mexicana Ulmer 
Designated Flint.”” In Vienna. 
This species, originally described in Wormaldia, is definitely a 
species of Chimarra (subgenus Curgia). Unfortunately the type 
series is in very poor condition since each specimen lacks its abdomen. 
The lectotype is in the best condition and is brown with yellow hair 
on the head and in patches on the forewings. The original figure 
of the venation appears correct, but the figure of the genitalia is 
undoubtedly upside down.
