,

, by
J.P. Rogers
(no. 982).
From
the
Mathews Collection
(no. 6359) via the
Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS
: Mathews cited his catalog number of the
holotype
in the original description. In addition to Rogers’ label, it bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels. The only locality given for this form was
Derby
. According to Mathews’ catalog, this female
holotype
was paired with a male, collected on the same day, AMNH 606442 (Mathews no. 6358), a
paratype
. There are six additional Rogers specimens, AMNH 606443–606448 (Mathews nos. 8860–8865), collected
5–8 May 1911
and cataloged by Mathews on
24 June 1911
. It is perhaps possible that they reached Mathews before the
17 June 1911
publication date of the name and are
paratypes
.
