Type material: MHNG-INVE-60808 , three paralectotypes (ex d’Orbigny, Moricand coll.).

Remarks: d’Orbigny (1835) did not state on how many specimens his description was based. In d’Orbigny 1838 [1834-1847]: 292 he corrected the measurements as “Long. ex 40 ad 75 millim.; lat. ex 12 ad 35 millim.”. In this paper he also specified the localities as “principalement à Yanacache et à Chupé, dans la province de Yungas, et dans celles de Sicasica et d’Ayapaya”; see also Breure (1973: 133, fig. 7). Breure (1975) selected a lectotype from among the syntypes present in the MNHN collection without locality data; further type material is in the NHMUK ( Breure & Ablett, 2014). The current systematic position is according to these authors.
