Remarks
This species was described from a female and a male specimen, both of which were found. The female is a Trichopria and the male is an Acanthopria. The female is designated as lectotype to maintain the current combination (Kieffer 1916; Masner 1965). The original description included the multiple original spellings smithii and smithi; smithii is to be considered the correct original spelling following the first reviser action of Dalla Torre (1898). Consequently the spelling smithi is unavailable.
