Tranquebar.' in ink handwriting and 'indica 277 Coll. Winthem' (name and number 

 in handwriting, other words printed). 



Dexia festive Wulp, 1881 : 41. 



Wulp headed the description with the words 'Een $ te Moeara Laboe, in November', 

 from which statement it appears that the type-material consisted of a single $. 

 The text of the description, however, mentions both 3 and $, and the figure is of 

 a £. In an earlier work (Crosskey, 1967c : 101) I mistakenly referred to the <J 

 specimen in the Leiden collection as the holotype, and wrongly presumed that 

 Wulp had mistakenly cited the sex. It is now clear that Wulp must have had both 

 sexes before him at the time of description, and I therefore now designate the single 

 surviving (<$) syntype, previously referred to as holotype, as the lectotype of J 'estiva. 

 LECTOTYPE J, Indonesia: Sumatra, Moeara Laboe, xi.1877 (in Rijksmuseum 

 van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden). The lectotype bears a handwritten label 

 apparently reading 'Ma Loi 11.77', a label in Wulp's hand reading 'Dexia festiva 

 v.d.Wulp Type', and printed labels reading 'Type' and '$' [sic]. 



Dexiotrix longipennis Villeneuve, 1936c : 330. 



Described from three $ syntypes from the same locality. LECTOTYPE $, 

 China: Szechwan, Mt Omei, Si Ai Pin, viii.1925 (D. C. Graham) (in United States 

 National Museum, Washington D.C.). The whereabouts of the other two syntypes 

 (paralectotypes) is not known to me. The lectotype bears Villeneuve's original 

 label 'Dexiotrix longipennis Typ. Villen.'. 



Doleschalla makilingensis Townsend, 1928 : 381. 



Described from four £ syntypes from the same locality. Townsend (1933 : 459) 

 referred to 'Male holotype, Lima', and later (Townsend, 19396 : 74) to 'Ht male - 

 Origin, Mount Makiling, Luzon; location, Washington' but neither statement 

 provides a valid lectotype fixation. LECTOTYPE <$, Philippines: Luzon, Mt 

 Makiling (Baker) (in United States National Museum, Washington D.C.). Paralec- 

 totypes 2 £, same data as lectotype (USNM). (The abdomen of the lectotype is 

 separately point-mounted, both paralectotypes are mouldy, and one of the paralec- 

 totypes lacks the abdomen.) 



The USNM collection contains a <$ specimen from Cuernos Mts, Negros, Philip- 

 pines (Baker) that bears a Townsend 'Type' label but it has no type-status. 



Dolichopodomintho dolichopiformis Townsend, 19276 : 278. 



Described from one J and four $ syntypes from Formosa, the <$ from Kosempo 

 and the $ from Kankau. Towsend (19396 : 183) cited 'Ht female', but as there 

 are at least three existing $ syntypes to which this statement could apply it does 

 not provide valid lectotype fixation. LECTOTYPE $, Formosa: Koshun, Kankau, 

 vii.1912 (H. Sauter) (in Deutsches Entomologisches Institut, Eberswalde). Para- 

 lectotypes 2 $, same data as lectotype except date 7.V.1912 (DEI). 



In addition to the three type-specimens the DEI collection has two females
