Type material. Type material of Lycaea stebbingi could not be found in the NRS or NHMD and is considered lost. No precise type locality is given; just “tropical parts of Atlantic”. The description provided by Bovallius (1887) is very inadequate and there are no figures. Therefore, in the absence of type material, it is impossible to determine the status of this species. Vinogradov et al. (1982, 1996) consider it a synonym of L. serrata .
