Remarks.
The description indicates that
41 specimens
were collected and presented to the British Museum (now The Natural History Museum, London). No mention is made to the exchange of any types to other museums. The online MCZ database indicates that T. Barbour donated a series of specimens labelled as
paratypes
to MCZ. One of these was donated by Loveridge to Hewitt at the AMG.
