Remarks

This species was described from six females, of which two syntypes were found. The specimen numbered 9.713 is mounted on a card and is missing part of the right fore leg; the other is mounted on a card point and is missing the tip of the right hind leg. Both belong to Trichopria . In his treatment of this species Ashmead used the specific name grenadensis in the key (p. 809) and angulifera heading the description (p. 810 line 44 - species number 3) as is evident from the correspondence between the characters used in the key and the description, hence P. angulifera Ashmead, 1896: 810 line 44 and P. grenadensis are multiple original spellings. Ashmead (1900) is the first reviser under Art. 24.2.4, and he chose P. grenadensis as the correct original spelling. P. angulifera Ashmead, 1896: 810 line 44 is thus an incorrect original spelling, has no separate availability and cannot enter into homonymy with P. angulifera Ashmead, 1896: 810 lines 12, 29 (species number 2) q. v. above .
