gave the AMNH number of the
holotype
. His type series comprised
three specimens
from the Cyclops Mountains and five from the Idenburg slope. The
seven paratypes
are: AMNH 293838, 340502–340506, 585477, and 585478. AMNH 340503 was sent to MZB on
7 May 1957
, and AMNH 340506 was part of a large exchange with the FMNH in the 1960s. For a discussion of the familial position of
Drymodes
, see under
D. brunneopygia victoriae
.
Bernhard Camp was at approximately 038309S, 1398159E, based on the map in
Archbold et al. (1942)
, who also gave a description of this collecting locality and summary of the 1938–1939 Archbold Expedition.
