One of the specimens in the first jar has the label “ Scutigera templetoni Humb. , type, Ceylan ” indicating that it is the holotype . The other specimen was collected by Bugnion in 1912 and is therefore not part of the type series. The specimen in the second jar was collected on Mauritius and is therefore not part of the type series.
