From Echo maxima to Archineura maxima - a slow taxonomic process (Odonata: Calopterygidae)

摘要

The treatment of Echo maxima Martin, 1904 in the taxonomic literature, a species known only from a single female specimen from northern Vietnam, is briefly reported. Photographs of the holotype are provided and the species' morphological characters are compared with those of the two known Archineura species: incarnata and hetaerinoides. A new generic combination Archineura maxima is introduced.
