About Calypogeia azurea Stotler & Crotz

Following Söderström et al. (2002), reports in Algeria that used the name C. trichomanis auct. have been assigned to C. azurea. However, since the concept of C. trichomanis often includes C. muelleriana and possibly other species, the presence and distribution of this species complex in Algeria are uncertain.
