Abstract
The holotype of Lestes birmana Selys, 1891 (currently Indolestes birmanus (Selys, 1891)), housed in Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Genova, is examined and depicted for the first time. Its cerci are not attenuated apically, hence this taxon cannot be a subspecies of Indolestes gracilis (Hagen in Selys, 1862).
Keywords
