Distribution: New Zealand(ND).   Remarks.Two specimens were stated explicitly by Cameronto be included in the typeseries of this species, the  typein the Brookes collection (now NZAC) and cotype in his own collection (now BMNH). However, three specimens on a single card were designated as “ type” by Cameronin the NZAC (there were no specimens in the BMNH though the name and its location are listed in the database). We decided to regard these three NZAC specimens as syntypes. In order to stabilize this name a lectotypeand 2 paralectotypesare here designatedfor these specimens of  Myllaena magnicollis.    Typematerial examined. Lectotype( NZAC): card-mounted (far left specimen, 10 inpink handwritten at base of card), “Coll.
