Bicellonycha crassa (Gorham, 1884)

Photuris crassa Gorham 1884: 274

One male specimen was found bearing a red “type” label and a “Sp. figured” label. Gorham (1884) imaged both a male a female but indicated the female was of a different variation. He also mentions a wide range of variation, particularly in color, among the many specimens he examined. These varieties are left for future study in the taxonomy of the group. Here we designate the above male specimen as the lectotype. Labels for the designated lectotype specimen are as follows: “Bugaba,/ Panama./Champion.” “Type ♂ ” “Type. ♂ / Sp. figured.” “ Photuris / crassa/Gorham” “SYN-/TYPE”. A red label is added with the following text: “ LECTOTYPE / Photuris crassa Gorham /Designated by/Martin and Saxton 2020”.
