Remarks. This species was described from material from
Réunion
identified by
Risbec (1957)
as
Mandraka pauliani
(not the
type
material of
M. pauliani
Risbec, 1953
q.
v. which
is from
Madagascar
). The
holotype
of
Leptacis risbeci
bears Masner’s
holotype
label, and Risbec’s identification as
Mandraka pauliani
. It is dry-mounted on a microscope slide, has the head disarticulated but is otherwise entire, and has the cover slip ringed with a soft clear resin.
