Remarks. The juvenile specimen at ZMH comes from the Museum Strasbourg. The large specimen is given by Kraepelin as “Typus” but in the description both specimens are used (e.g. colour of the adult versus the juvenile). The ZMH specimen is a syntype and the second (adult) syntype is likely present at the Musée zoologique de la ville de Strasbourg.
