sumatranus Carl, 1906: 243-245 View in CoL , figs 15-18 [ Trachelomegalus ].

Sumatra (Coll. Mösch et Coll. Schneider). Unspecified number of ♂ and ♀.

The MHNG collection contains four specimens in alcohol in two jars. The first jar (MHNG-ARTO-14441) contains two specimens; one has a pin running the length of the body, the other is broken into three pieces. There is also a vial containing gonopods. The identification labels in the jar both have “ Sumatra coll. Schneider ” written on them and there is a printed “ Type ” label, indicating that the specimens are syntypes. The second jar (MHNG- ARTO-14442) contains one broken specimen. The pencil-written identification label has “ Sumatra G. Schneider ” written on it, indicating that the specimens are syntypes. There are also three specimens (one ♂ and two ♀ referred to as “Co-Typus” in the NMB catalogue) in the NMB (inventory number NMB-DIPL-00232a) which are probably syntypes.
