One unsexed specimen: ‘ N. carinaefrons / Kuwert typ / 27 [hw Nickerl]’. Remark. The specimen without a locality label could be the one of the length of 32 mm cited by KUWERT (1898b) . However, KUWERT (1891) stated the length of this species to be 37 mm and the type locality ‘Mérida, Caucasthal’, which corresponded to the specimen in Kuwert’s collection only. This species belongs to Passalus sensu BOUCHER (2015) and is currently a junior subjective synonym of P. punctiger Le Peletier & Serville, 1825 .
