Remarks. – According to Tavakilian &Chevillotte (2024) and Monné (2024) Leptocometes nubilus was described based on syntypes from Brazil (Minas Gerais). However, according to Melzer (1934): “Long. 8-10 mm. 6 ex. Hab. Estado de Minas Gerais: Passa Quatro, Fazenda dos Campos, J. F. Zikán e E. Jaeger leg. Tipo na minha coleção [Length 8-10 mm. 6 specimens. From the state of Minas Gerais: Passa Quatro, Campos Farm, J. F. Zikán and E. Jaeger leg. Type in my collection].” Therefore, the species has a holotype (ICZN 1999: 73.1.1), which is a female,and five paratypes. Monné et al. (2017) alreadyreportedthatthe species has a holotype (female).
