willeyi Carl, 1932: 425-426 View in CoL , figs 6-7 [ Orthomorpha (Kalorthomorpha) ].
Ceylon: Kala Oya , XII 1905 , Dr. A. Willey leg. (Brit. Museum). Unspecified number of ♂ and ♀ .
The MHNG collection contains a ♀ specimen and isolated gonopods in alcohol (MHNG-ARTO-14384). The intact specimen has a pin running the length of the body and is accompanied by a small vial containing the gonopods and a leg. The label in the large vial has “ Orth. (Kalorthomopha) willeyi Carl , ♀ cotype, ♂ gonopodes et 3e patte. Ceylon ex. Brit. Musem” written on it, indicating that the specimens are syntypes. The rest of the ♂ was returned to the BMNH. A handwritten label in the jar indicates that the specimens were studied by Jeekel in 1976. Jeekel (1980a) designated Orthomorpha willeyi as the type species of the genus Pyragrogonus Jeekel, 1980 in the original description of the genus.
