Photinus pusillus Gorham, 1884

Photinus pusillus Gorham 1884: 268

Eleven specimens were located that matched the locality data given by Gorham (1884). Other specimens were found, but due to label data not matching Gorham (1884) they were excluded from the type series. Two specimens were card-mounted together with a red “type” label. We here designate the specimen on the right as the lectotype. The other ten specimens are designated as paralectotypes. Labels for the designated lectotype specimen are as follows: “SYN-/TYPE” “Type” “V. de Chiriqui,/ 4000-6000 ft. /Champion.” “ Photinus /pusillus/ Gorham” “Type.” “B.C.A.Col.III.(2)/ Photinus /pusillus,/Gorham”. A red label is added with the following text: “ LECTOTYPE / Photinus pusillus Gorham /Designated by/Martin and Saxton 2020”
