Now : Granatina ianthinogaster (Reichenow, 1879) . See Blake et al. (1968: 335) . Syntype : ZMB 24257 (B 15708, Fischer no. 378), skin, male, collected at “Massa”, 03.11.[1878] . Syntype : ZMB 24258 (B 15708, Fischer no. 377), skin, female, collected at “Massa”, 03.11.[1878] . Type locality : “ Massa” [ Masabubu , Tana River County , Kenya ], from the original description as well as locality of the syntypes . Remarks : In the original description no type was chosen, and there were no inventory numbers for specimens provided, but measurements and descriptions for both sexes ( Figure 1c ), and the locality “Massa” were given. Fischer & Reichenow (1879) listed two (nos. 377, 378) for this species. As these two specimens are the only ones of this species collected by Fischer found in the Berlin and Hamburg collections, and the locality is correct, both are regarded as syntypes .
