Leptaulax aurivillii
Kuwert, 1891
Leptaulax aurivillii
Kuwert, 1891: 189
.
One unsexed specimen: ‘Mohnike [hw] // Sumatra, Mohnike [hw, yellow label] //
L. Aurivillii
/ Kuwert typ! / 13
[hw not Kuwert] // Nickerl [p]’.
Remark.
This
Leptaulax
specimen is different (although very near) from the specimens in Kuwert’s collection. It differs in total body length (
22 mm
) and locality label.
Syntypes
in Kuwert’s collection fit original description including body length (
24 mm
) and type localities ‘Assam’ and ‘Old Calabar’. Exceptionally, one of these
syntypes
bears the indication ‘Type’ handwritten by Kuwert.
