COMMENTS: Although there was no number or year given or place of deposit mentioned in Phillips’ description of
crossini
, this specimen is marked ‘‘
crossini
type’’ by Phillips on the Phillips Collection label. The AMNH number of the
holotype
is given by
Dickerman and Parkes (1997: 230)
. Phillips gave measurements for males and females and said that the form was resident in ‘‘coastal mts of
Michoacán
,
Guerrero
, and Sn
Oaxaca
, and probably coastally from Sn
Jalisco
(Sa. de Autlán 5 Miahuatlán) all the way to
Veracruz
, etc.,’’ but did not enumerate his specimens. The
holotype
is the only specimen that came to AMNH.
