Description
crudelis Saussure & Zehntner, 1897: pl. 12, fig. 3 [Cormocephalus].
Illustration without description.
Saussure & Zehntner (1902: 312-313) gave a description and the locality information “ Madagascar, F. Sikora (Musée de Genève).” The MHNG collection contains two specimens in alcohol under the name Cormocephalus crudelis. There is no data label, but the identification labels in the jar have “Madagascar” written on them and there is no reason to suppose that they are not syntypes.
A junior synonym of Cormocephalus westwoodi (Newport, 1844)
