Later on, I saw Williams' type in ICCM culis basi albis, which agrees with the type in of Pro torma recuruatum. an d came to the conclusion Fabricius' collection in the ZMK (conspecific with that Williams species is just a synonym of Thom Say's Lamia crypta); both the locality (America son's species.

In fact, description. The confusion was obviously caused by the description of Protorma recuruaiuni was based an error in the printing of page 326 in Fabricius' on a single male specimen, and the type of Protonna Systema Eleutheratorum. It is clear that between scab rosa in the BMNH is a female. The three the Saperdo nigricornis (n? 47) and the Saperda described taxa belong to the same species, and the tristis (n" 51) the synonymies were wronglyskipped. valid name is Protorma costifera (Thomson, 1877).
