0253. Corrigenda to and validation of Ozophora woodruffi Slater 2005 (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae)

Abstract

Important missing specimen data are provided for the original description of Ozophora woodruffi Slater (2005: 245) (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae), along with additional comparative relationships. Because of the missing type information, according to ICZN rules (1999), the species became a nomen nudum. This paper now serves to validate the name, and authorship becomes Slater (2012).
