TYPE LOCALITY: “ Insula Bonae Fortunae ( Borneo ) , Provincia Sarawak [ Bona Fortuna Island , Sarawak Province , Borneo ]” ( Rondani 1875c: 421 ) . TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂ , syntype ( MSNG ): Sarawak / typus / Nothybus longithorax Rond. / Nothybus longithorax , n° 33; 1 ♂ , syntype (missing head and wings) ( MSNG ): Sarawak ; 1 ♂ , syntype (missing mid- and fore-legs, partially eaten by dermestids) ( MZUF : Box 72): Nothybus longithorax n., Sarawak / [no identification number ]. CURRENT STATUS: valid species ( Steyskal 1977b: 30 ). REMARKS: Rondani (1875c: 439) described Nothybus longithorax , without specifying either the number or the sex of the specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, despite there being three specimens in the type series found in this study, from material collected by G. Doria and O. Beccari. Rondani did not select a holotype in his original description. Guiglia (1957: 195) reported “ Tipo e 1 cotipo ( esemplare senza capo ) [Type and 1 cotype (specimen missing its head)]” in the MSNG. Raineri & Rey (1996: 44) also considered the MSNG specimens as “Typus, 1 Cotypus [Type, 1 Cotype]”. Guiglia (1957: 195) and Raineri & Rey (1996: 44) did not unambiguously indicate the type, therefore they did not designate a lectotype (I.C.Z.N. 1999: Article 74.6). Neither Guiglia nor Raineri & Rey mentioned the MZUF male. The two MSNG males and the MZUF male are all syntypes .
