Type
locality:
[CL] Tairua.
Broun number:
236.
Notes:
Broun mentioned that he collected five specimens from Tairua. We located two specimens in the BMNH Broun collection and three specimens in the BMNH main collection matching this locality record. Two additional specimens also matching this locality in the NZAC are not considered to be part of the
syntype
series. In order to stabilize this name, a
lectotype
and four
paralectotypes
are
here designated
for
Bryaxis mundus
.
The type label was written as
Byraxis
, but the original combination was under
Bryaxis
.
