Remarks
Nurse (1902)
described
Notozus kashmirensis
based on
seven specimens
, males and females.
Five males
and a female are deposited at the
NHMUK
, whereas the second female, bearing the same labels, is deposited in the Mocsáry collection at HNHM.
Kimsey (1986)
designated the
lectotype
based on a male specimen, without pinning any label specifying this. I consider the male labelled as ′Type J̍ by Nurse to be the
lectotype
selected by Kimsey (
Figure 7
).
