Styxia cerberus
Description
Styxia cerberus (Hull, 1943)
Baccha cerberus Hull, 1943b: 66. Type-locality: Ecuador, Chicocha [HT ♀ AMNH].
Ocyptamus cereberus. Thompson et al. (1976:14). Misspelling.
Comments. Hull (1943b) originally named his species Baccha cerberus, but Thompson et al. (1976) misspelled it as cereberus. This species was already related to Styxia eblis by Hull (1943b) in his original description and it fits the current diagnosis of Styxia.
