Type
material examined.
Holotype
: ♀, “N.
O
. Sumatra / Tebing-tinggi / Dr.Schultheiss.”, “Coll. Breddin”; pinned, left antennal segment IV lacking (
DEIC
) (
Figs. 29–31
).
Remarks.
Although the number of the examined specimens was not given, the singular case of the
German
noun
Stück
in the original description (
Breddin 1906: 71
) (“…beim vorliegenden Stück” = “…in the available specimen”) implicitly indicates that it was based on a single individual. The examined specimen is therefore considered as the
holotype
of
D. schultheissi
fixed by monotypy (
ICZN 1999, Art. 73.1.2
). For further remarks see above under
D. jacobsoni
.
