Cautires congener
Waterhouse, 1879
Cautires congener
Waterhouse, 1879: 36
.
Type material
Holotype
INDONESIA
: ♁,
Java
(
BMNH
); no further data available.
Remark
Kleine (1926)
reported
C. congener
from several localities in the Malay Peninsula and illustrated the apical part of the phallus of a specimen. We studied the
holotype
of
C. congener
, deposited in the BMNH collection, and found that Kleine’s identification was incorrect. The
holotype
has the apical part of the phallus much wider and the species is yellowish orange coloured unlike all Malay
Cautires
species.
Kleine (1926)
reported several specimens from various localities from the lowlands to the lower mountain elevations in the Cameron
Highlands
. These specimens were not available for our study, but they probably do not represent
C. congener
, which is known only from
Java
.
