Bryaxis conspicua Broun, 1893a: 1415 . Eupines (Byraxis) conspicua: combination and subgeneric assignment by Raffray 1904: 207. Raffray 1911: 82, 1924: 156; Hudson 1923: 364, 1934: 183; Nomura & Leschen 2006: 254; Maddison 2010: 417.

Type locality: [AK] Hunua Range, Maketu.

Broun number: 2464.

Notes: Broun mentioned that there were 10 males and uncertain number of females. Four specimens in the BMNH Broun collection and 12 specimens in the NZAC matching the locality were located. One specimen in the NZAC with Broun’s handwritten number, lacks a locality label, and is not considered to be a syntype. In order to stabilize this name, a lectotype and 17 paralectotypes are here designated for Bryaxis conspicua .
