03D087A10714FFFB6DAFFA2EFD4555A2.taxon	materials_examined	A slide-mounted ♂ syntype with labels: “ Madagascar, Mr de Saussure ” [handwritten on pink paper]; “ Embia spec. ” [handwritten on pink paper]; “ O. hova Sauss. ♂ ” [handwritten on white paper]; “ EMBIA HOVA SAUSS: ♂ LECTOTYPE ” [handwritten on red card]. The first three labels have holes indicating that they were originally placed on an insect pin. The slide has two cover slips: the first covers the right fore and hind wings; the second covers the cleared body, which is coming apart between the second and third thoracic segments. Both middle legs are detached and the left forewing is absent, although this might be the detached wing glued to a clear mount on a separate pin with the label: “ O. hova Sauss. ♂ Flügel ” [handwritten on white paper] in the insect box. The lectotype does not seem to have been formally designated.

Most of the right antenna and both hind legs are lost. Saussure mentioned a second ♂ collected by Humbert in Ceylon at the same time as the specimen described, but this comes after the description and he refers to its differences from the first specimen meaning that it should not be considered a syntype. The second specimen is apparently lost.	en	Hollier, John (2013): The Embioptera (Insecta) described by Henri de Saussure.

03D087A10716FFFA6DAFFF33FC8352B2.taxon	discussion	Davis (1939 a) created the genus Saussurella for a specimen mistakenly identified by Longinos Navás as E. ruficollis Saussure. Recognising that this genus name was preoccupied, he later proposed the new name Saussurembia (Davis, 1940). Ross (1992) considered the generic concept valid, but, having studied the type of E. ruficollis, considered the specimen for which it was created to belong to a different species. Ross (1992) placed ruficollis Saussure in the genus Chelicerca, and described the species used to found the genus Saussurembia as S. davisi. Miller (2009) stated that in basing the genus on a misidentified specimen Davis is automatically considered to have established a new nominal species, which is the type species for the genus, and made S. davisi Ross, 1992 a junior synonym of S. ruficollis Davis, 1939. Maehr & Eades (2012) placed both davisi Ross and ruficollis Davis as distinct species in the genus Saussurembia.	en	Hollier, John (2013): The Embioptera (Insecta) described by Henri de Saussure.

03D087A10716FFFA6DAFFC33FD015712.taxon	discussion	Davis (1939 c: 480) considered that the left cercus was broken rather than one segmented as Saussure had said, and thought that this species was a junior synonym of Parembia persica (McLachlan, 1877). In a letter to Carl in 1939 Davis stated that he could not locate the three syntypes of P. persica despite having visited the Natural History Museum in London, but the Museum’s online database lists slide-mounted type material. Ross (2009) listed this species under Embia with a symbol to indicate that the generic combination will be changed.	en	Hollier, John (2013): The Embioptera (Insecta) described by Henri de Saussure.

03D087A10711FFFC6DB0FC74FD585592.taxon	discussion	There are many more specimens in alcohol in a second jar and it is unclear whether they should be regarded as syntypes. Saussure (1896 b) states that Urich sent him two series of specimens, and that from the second he was able to extract a number of adults in good enough condition to study. It seems reasonable to consider only the specimens which had been pinned and labelled to be syntypes (one of which has subsequently been returned to alcohol), but the specimens in the second jar may be of similar status because it has a label “ E. uhrichi ” while the raw samples sent by Urich contained a mixture of A. urichi and P. trinitatis. This species, including the juvenile ♂, was illustrated by Saussure (1896 b: figures 1 - 12 [figure 5 is labelled 15 on the plate]) after the publication of the original description. The species was named for F. W. Urich, who collected the specimens in Trinidad. For some reason Saussure spelled this “ Uhrich ” and thus the species became “ uhrichi ” both in Saussure 1896 b and on the specimen labels. In a letter to Carl in 1938 Davis suggests that Urich, who was the editor of the journal in which Saussure 1896 a appeared, corrected the spelling at the last minute, leading to the publication of both variants.	en	Hollier, John (2013): The Embioptera (Insecta) described by Henri de Saussure.
