Limonia vormanni (Westhoff, 1882)

The identity of this taxon is unclear. It might be a valid species, but it is only known from its original description, two male specimens. It is possible, that the name refers to aberrantly developed individuals of one of the other species of the genus, because Westhoff (1882) mentions an aberrantly formed wing venation that is unlike any other species of the genus ("Der Verlauf der einzelnen Adern ist ebenfalls eigenthümlich und erinnert an keine Nervatur, welche die Verwandten zeigen. Besonders bemerkenswerth ist die Stellung der kleinen Querader, welche mehr zur Flügelspitze hin vorgerückt ist, so dass sie nicht am Grunde, sondern im unteren Drittel in die Discoidalzelle einmündet").
