Unspecified
number of
♂
and
♀
. The
MHNG
collection contains
two specimens
in alcohol (MHNG-ARTO-18450). The specimens are accompanied by a vial containing telopods. One of the identification labels in the jar has “
♂
Sumatra
,
Coll. W. Volz
” written on it, indicating that the specimens are
syntypes
. Carl’s original label does not give a locality, and it is possible that these specimens are really those listed as deposited in the
MHNG
in the original description and not specimens collected by
Volz. The
other
syntypes
are presumably in the
NMBE
.
