COMMENTS
:
Rand
cited the AMNH number of the
holotype
in the original description and noted that he had
22 specimens
. The
21 paratypes
are AMNH 341297–341317. Of these, AMNH 341298 was exchanged to BMNH in 1967, AMNH 341301 and 341310 were exchanged to FMNH in the early 1960s, AMNH 341313 was sent to MZB in 1957, and AMNH 341316 was exchanged to ANSP. I did not
find AMNH
341312.
