Lepidocyrtus albicaudatus Hammer 1953

Description

L. albicaudatus Hammer, 1953

Lepidocyrtus cyaneus var. albicaudatus Hammer, 1953: 56

NT Hammer 1953; Stebaeva et al. 2016

Remarks: As Christiansen & Bellinger (1980, p. 936) noted, this species is “unplaceable without types”, although specimens from Yellow Knife “having V and VI abdominal segments completely unpigmented” (Hammer 1953, p. 56) appear to differ in coloration from other congeners known from the region. Four syntypes of this species are kept in the Canadian National Collection (Stebaeva et al. 2016).

General distribution: Nearctic.
