HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 685154
, adult female, collected at
Olinda
,
37.51S
,
145.22E
(
USBGN
, 1957),
Victoria
,
Australia
, on
24 December 1910
, by
Thomas H. Tregellas. From
the
Mathews Collection
(no. 8083) via the
Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews gave the type locality as Olinda and the collecting date of the type as
24 December 1910
but made no mention of range or number of specimens examined. The above
holotype
is the only Mathews specimen in AMNH collected at Olinda on
24 December 1910
. The number ‘‘706’’ on Tregellas’ label refers to the number of this species in
Mathews (1908)
. There are four additional Mathews specimens from Olinda that I consider
paratypes
, although I found only one of them in Mathews’ catalog. The Mathews Collection was essentially complete by 1914 when ‘‘The war of 1914 ended collecting as all my men joined the forces.’’ (
Mathews, 1942: 54
).
Paratypes
are:
AMNH 685150
, male,
6 June 1909
, collected by L.G. Chandler;
AMNH 685151
(Mathews no. 5115), male,
6 June 1909
, collected by Tregellas;
AMNH 685152
, female,
11 April 1911
, collected by Tregellas;
AMNH 685153
, female,
7 June 1909
, collected by Chandler. AMNH 685151 and 685153 bear Mathews ‘‘Figured’’ labels indicating that they were illustrated in
Mathews (1923b
: pl. 502, opp. p. 117, text pp. 117–118).
