COMMENTS:
Mathews
cited his catalog number of the
holotype
in the original description and gave the range as ‘‘adjoining parts of
North-west
Australia
and
Northern Territory
.’’
The
holotype
bears an original label, a large printed label stamped with
Edwin Ashby’s
name on the reverse, and
Mathews
and
Rothschild
type labels.
The
following specimens are
paratypes

Trig. station
