Material

Remarks
Dahlbom (1854[1]: 49) described Holopyga luzulina based on two specimens received from Milde and Spinola. French labelled the specimen in the Spinola collection as lectotype, but the designation has not been published. Since we could not find the second syntype in MNHU, we designate the lectotype of Holopyga luzulina Dahlbom to fix the current interpretation of the species. After Dahlbom, many South American Holopyga have been described, and there is the possibility that the other syntype belongs to a different species, as found in other cases (e.g. Holopyga dohrni Dahlbom, 1854, with different syntypes from U.S.A. and Cuba). The type is missing tibia and tarsi of the right foreleg and left mesoleg and also the femora, tibiae, and tarsi of the left metaleg; a thin mould layer covers the right side of the body. The second specimen placed under the name Holopyga luzulina is a male of Hedychrum rutilans Dahlbom, 1854, most likely placed in this position in recent times.
Current status
Holopyga luzulina Dahlbom, 1854.
