Abstract

A list is provided of 218 holotypes, the syntypes of 15 species and subspecies, and paratypes of 129 species and subspecies of the Lamiinae presently housed in the Museum d'histoire naturelle, Geneva. Most of the names were published by S. Breuning. As the taxonomic treatment of the Lamiinae was often inadequate it was necessary to check the original descriptions for all names listed. The authenticity of several types is found doubtful. They are indicated by ?HP or ?PT. Unpublished information from labels is given in square brackets. Illegible handwritten text is indicated by the sign □. When a description was published twice, a reference to the second description is given in parentheses. Separate lists are given for type material of varieties published before 1961, and for unavailable names published with designation of type material.
