Lydia annulipes (H. Milne Edwards, 1834)

Fig. 26

Material examined

MAURITIUS • 1 unsexed (28.1×28.7); 1850; Guérin-Méneville leg.; MNCN20.04/03382 .

Remarks

The specimen is in very poor condition. The previous identification on the oldest label is Ozius macrodentu s, a species of which there are no traces in literature, and on the most recent label it appears written as the genus Orius , which is due to a misspelling of the genus name.

For identification see also Serène (1984), Poupin (2015) and Poupin et al. (2018).
