Two immature syntypes from Nuwara Eliya , Sri Lanka , 06°58′N , 80°47′E ( MNHN 1502 ) . See Grismado et al. (2011) for a detailed description and diagnosis. Remarks During a recent revision of Aprusia , Grismado et al. (2011) redescribed A. strenuus based on the original juvenile specimens. Although they mentioned the possibility that A. strenuus might be conspecific with one of the other described species, they could not unambiguously match any of their specimens to the original types or description of A. strenuus . We conducted extensive fieldwork in Nuwara Eliya and the surrounding forests. However, we did not find any Aprusia specimens in the area. Further, none of our specimens can be unambiguously matched to the original types or the recent redescription of Grismado et al. (2011) of the species. As we continue to search for A. strenuus , we refrain from effecting any taxonomic changes at this juncture.
