P.V. Putshkov
Abstract. A list of type specimens of 75 nominal species-group taxa is given. Lectotypes are designated for 48 of them. Characters for recognition of these lectotypes and holotypes of certain taxa are indicated. Reduvius komarowii (Jakovlev, 1885) is restored as a good species (not a synonym of R. tabidus Klug, 1830).
