Abstract

Gryllodes greeni Gryllodes sigillatus Gryllodes supplicans neotype designation s synonymy
A globally distributed cricket species, Gryllodes sigillatus (Walker), has recently been treated as a junior synonym of Gryllodes supplicans (Walker) from Sri Lanka. Examination of the male genitalia indicate that G. sigillatus is distinct from the Sri Lankan species. Two species were described from Sri Lanka — G. supplicans, and its junior synonym, G. greeni Chopard. The type of G. supplicans is lost. A syntype male of G. greeni is here designated as the neotype of G. supplicans.
