[380: Note #742] (Heliocheilus puncticulata (Warren, 1913) was described and reference given to an illustration published simultaneously. The illustration could not apply to the species described. The specific name puncticulata Warren was applied in the Checklist to the species described rather than the species figured as the specimen labelled 'type' in the BMNH accords with the description)
