Résumé

L'auteur considère que l'espèceOrmocerus borges Walker, 1839 (décrit dans le sexe masculin seulement) est le mâle, auparavant non reconnu, deEpicopterus choreiformis Westwood, 1833. Il est parvenu à cette conclusion après la comparaison des lectotypes respectifs et du matériel nouveau récolté en Angleterre. En raison des importantes différences existant entre la femelle et le mâle, l'auteur présente une nouvelle description de ce dernier, ainsi qu'une diagnose provisoire du genreEpicopterus.
