REVISIONARY CLASSIFICATION OF RUTILIINI 81 
still exists in Paris Museum and is here designated as lectotype (see p. IIg); it has 
three postalar setae, haired suprasquamal ridge, and all the other features shown by 
vivipara and is believed to be undoubtedly conspecific with the neotype of vivipara; 
hence inornata also is placed as a synonym of vivipara. (But note that the name 
inornata has been misapplied in the literature to the species that should be called 
sabrata Walker and belongs in Donovanius: see further discussion of this under that 
subgenus. )
