Remarks
Although Tom Pain has written ‘lectotype’ on his label he did not, to my knowledge, publish this designation. This specimen is the one figured by Kobelt; it has a ‘T’ written on it and Tomlin has associated a type label with it; the other two specimens originally in the same lot do not have a ‘T’ written on them or type labels. The note with the specimens written by Layard states that he only saw 3 examples and so I conclude that the figured specimen illustrated here is the holotype and the other specimens in the same lot are the paratypes.
