general solution is solved by use of a computer. The computer program
written specifically for this thesis, the flow chart,...

Three provisional species are described as new: Leucogaster
couchii, L. gelatinosus, and L. microsporus. Leucophlebs candida
is transferred to Leucogastef, completing the transfer of all
Leucophlebs species to Leucogaster. L. columellatus is transferred
to Sclerogaster. L. longisterigmatus is synonymized with
L. rubescens, L. foveolatus with L. odoratus, and L. fulvimaculatus...
