Wiedemann (1830) wrote that the specimen had been treated with arsenic, a common practice in those days to prevent insect depredation of entomological collections. Sometimes arsenic solutions were applied in a mixture with other ingredients, e.g. soap or mercury (Albrecht 1993). Perhaps the chemical treatment of the specimen has eventually led to its disappearence.
