La Camelia, 1800 m , Kaffeepflanzung; am Magdalena bei Jirardot, 250 m ; Puerto de los Pobres, am Cauca . Unspecified number of ♂ and ♀ . The MHNG collection contains six specimens in alcohol in two jars. One jar (MHNG-ARTO-18482) contains one specimen with a pin running the length of the body and a vial containing dissected parts including the head and anterior body rings and the gonopods. The identification labels in the jar are photocopies of the original labels in the second jar. They have “Camelia ( Colombie ) Coll. Fuhrmann ” and “ Colombie Coll. Fuhrmann ” written on them respectively, indicating that the specimen is part of the type series . A handwritten note dated 1990 indicates that Hoffman intended to designate this specimen as the lectotype . The second jar (MHNG-ARTO-18483) contains five specimens , one with a pin running the length of the body and two broken. The identification labels in the jar have “ Camelia ( Colombie ) Coll. Fuhrmann ” and “ Colombie Coll. Fuhrmann ” written on them respectively, indicating that the specimens are part of the type series. The lectotype designation has apparently not been published and so all of these specimens are syntypes . There is another ♀ syntype (referred to as “Co- Typus ” in the NMB catalogue) in the NMB (inventory number NMB-DIPL-00214a). Isoporostreptus ruralis (Carl, 1914) , Spirostreptidae
