Synonymy of C. albertisii ( Silvestri, 1895) and C. larvalis ( Butler, 1878)
The unique characters of C. larvalis , the female vulva and the increased number of apical cones of the antennae, are also present in the two females of the type series of C. albertisii . These similarities along with the close proximity of Somerset to the Torres Strait islands, and the fact that all expeditions to the Torres Strait islands stopped (and collected) at Somerset (see D'Albertis 1880), presents a strong argument for the synonymy of C. albertisii under C. larvalis .
