Vertagopus cinereus Folsom 1924
Description
L. cinereus Folsom, 1924
– Lepidocyrtus cyaneus var. cinereus Folsom, 1924: 9
– Lepidocyrtus pallidus Reuter, 1890: 24
AB Berg & Pawluk 1984; Skidmore 1995; Lindo 2014 as cinereus and pallidus
ON James 1933; Maynard 1951
Remarks: According to Christiansen & Bellinger (1980, p. 939), old “published records [of L. cinereus] are suspect because of confusion with other species”. On the other hand, those of L. pallidus in the Nearctic “are [also] unreliable because of possible confusion with other species, especially L. cinereus ” (Christiansen & Bellinger 1980, p. 952). It should be noted that the occurrence of true L. pallidus, said to be “the commonest species of the genus in Nearctic collections” by Christiansen & Bellinger (1980, p. 952), later became doubtful because “none of the specimens we had identified as pallidus are in fact that species” (Christiansen & Bellinger 1998, p. 1058).
General distribution: Nearctic.
