Taxonomic Comments

This record is for the broad treatment of Laphamia palmeri, including L. palmeri var. tenella (=Perityle tenella) as indistinct from the typical, as recognized by Lichter-Marck and Baldwin (2022). Yarborough and Powell's treatment in FNA (2006, vol. 21) and Kartesz (1994, 1999) recognize Perityle tenella as a distinct species, with P. palmeri in the narrow sense not reported in North America.
