TYPES OF PROCTOTRUPOIDEA 5 



preservation of the holotype is also given. Generic synonymy is based exclusively 

 on an examination of type material. Only new synonymy, or synonymy relevant to 

 the present list, is given. 



The expression "BMNH type-label" refers to type-labels used throughout the 

 Dept. of Entomology, British Museum (Nat. Hist.). These have a red margin for 

 holotypes and a yellow margin for paratypes (cotypes). Types of species described 

 by Walker have a label with a green margin. The symbols "BMNH" and "OUM" 

 indicate that the type is preserved in the collection of the British Museum (Nat. 

 Hist.) or the Oxford University Museum (Hope Department of Entomology) 

 respectively.
