The

collection contains
one specimen
and dissected parts of a second specimen in alcohol (MHNG- ARTO-18558). The specimen in one small vial and some gonopods in another small vial are placed together in a larger tube with a label with “Tropde. Tibet
10,000 ft.
,
22.6.1924
, Mt. Everest Exped. 1924 Maj. R. W. G. Hingston” written on it. The identification labels in the jar have “
♀

de Rungshar Valley” and “Himalaya, Tibet III Everest exped.” written on them respectively. The original description calls the specimens from
Nepal
“
Typen
” (first date) and “Cotypus” (second date), but all of the specimens studied by Carl should be considered
syntypes
(see
Jeekel, 1980c
). The other
syntypes
are in the
