Remarks
Telephorus imperialis Gorham, 1889 is a primary homonym and preoccupied by Telephorus imperialis Redtenbacher, 1867, so the former is permanently invalid (ICZN, 4th ed., article 57.2) and should be replaced by the next oldest available name among its synonyms (ICZN, 4th ed., article 23.3.5), that is, Themus (s.str.) regalis (Gorham, 1889) should be restated as the valid name for this species.
