Rondani (1843d: 35)
described both sexes of
Leopoldius erostratus
without specifying the exact
number
of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length.
Stuke (2017: 59)
reported the
syntype
series of
six specimens
in the MZUF as being comprised of
five males
and
one female
. We found
six syntypes
in the MZUF,
one syntype
in the MSNC and
one syntype
in the MZUB.
