COMMENTS
: Mathews cited his catalog number of the
holotype
in the original description. In addition to Tregellas’ label and Mathews and Rothschild type labels, this specimen also bears a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in
Mathews (1922a
: pl. 446, left fig., opp. p. 390, text pp. 402–406), where on p. 403 it is confirmed as the type of
inexpectata
. Three
additional specimens
were collected by
Tregellas
in
Victoria
before the publication date of
C. s. inexpectata
and are
paratypes
