The names are listed, their current combination and the location of the types are given. Where the primary type specimens are in Harz’s collection, now in the Muséum d’histoire naturelle de Genève (MHNG), the sex, verbatim label data and condition of the specimens is given, along with their location within the collection.

Although some of his Kurt Harz (1915-1996) was a German entomologist who, neotype designations have been accepted, others have despite being wheelchair-bound and self-taught, became not (Marshall, 1983) and a discussion of Harz’s neotypes one of the most important authorities on the European is deferred pending further research.
