HOLOTYPE
:
AMNH 195881
, adult female, collected on
Ua Pou
(
5
Huapu) Island,
09.25S
,
140.00W
(Times Atlas),
Marquesas Islands
,
French Polynesia
, on
4 November 1922
, by
Rollo H. Beck
on the
Whitney
South Sea Expedition
(no. 5885).
COMMENTS
: The AMNH number of the
holotype
was cited in the original description.
Paratypes
are specimens collected on Ua Pou by the Whitney Expedition during
October 1921
and
September and November 1922
: AMNH 190746–190750, 195857–195880, 195882– 195904, 199019–199021, 221823, and 221827. Of these, four were exchanged with Rothschild and were renumbered when they returned to AMNH: AMNH 195868 (
5
655356), 195872 (
5
655357), 195876 (
5
655359), and 195891 (
5
655358). AMNH 195860 and 195896 were exchanged to the Academy of Science,
Leningrad
, in
July 1929
. I did not find the following
paratypes
in the collection, and some may have been exchanged without having been so marked in the catalog, as was the case with the specimens that went to the Rothschild Collection: AMNH 190746, 195862, 195864, 195875, 195880, 195895, 195903, and 199020.
