COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description and gave the range as ‘‘ Victoria.’’ The following specimens are considered paratypes as they were cataloged by Mathews before 1 January 1912 ; his ‘‘ Reference-list’ ’ was published on 31 January 1912. Paratypes: Olinda, AMNH 721801 View Materials ( Mathews no. 4952), male, 9 May 1908 ; AMNH 721807 View Materials (3531), female, 9 May 1908 ; AMNH 721808 View Materials (2819), female, 9 May 1908 ; AMNH 721809 View Materials (8657), female, 28 March 1911 ; AMNH 721810 View Materials (8656), female, 25 March 1911 ; AMNH 721812 View Materials (9076), female, 13 May 1911 ; AMNH 721816 View Materials (5100), male, 15 August 1908. Ringwood, AMNH 721813 View Materials (3530), sex?, 10 August 1908 ; AMNH 721814 View Materials (3532), female, 15 October 1908 ; AMNH 721815 View Materials (3533), female, October 1908. Selby, AMNH 721820 View Materials (9078), male ; AMNH 721825 View Materials (9074), AMNH 721826 View Materials (9077), females, all collected 5 June 1911. All were collected by Tregellas or L.G. Chandler. The following specimens are possible paratypes, but I did not find them in Mathews’ catalog and do not know when

they came into his possession: AMNH 721802–721806, three males, 2 females, Olinda, 9 May 1908, collected by Chandler or Tregellas.

The number ‘‘838’’ that appears on Tregellas’ field label of the holotype refers to the number of this species in Mathews (1908).
