Zalmoxis robusta Sørensen, 1886 View in CoL , p. 12–13, fig. 5; Roewer, 1923, p. 86; Staręga, 1989, p. 4.
Record. * Viti Levu, Fiji, Melanesia.
Remarks. Sørensen (1886) reported the collecting locality as "Polynesia, on 'Viti' island". He was referring to Viti Levu, the largest island of the Fiji and a constituent of Melanesia, not Polynesia. The holotype of Z. robusta is a 4.5 mm long male that bears the sexually dimorphic fourth walking leg characteristic of the genus ("Differentia sexualis armatura pedum IV forsitan demonstratur," p. 13).
