HOLOTYPE: AMNH 110047 , adult male, collected at Cerro Munchique , 8325 ft, 02.32N, 76.57W ( Paynter, 1997), Coast Range west of Popayan, Cauca, Colombia, on 26 May 1911, by William B. Richardson.

COMMENTS: Chapman’s type series comprised eight specimens from Cerro Munchique, and he gave the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to the eight adult specimens, there are also two juvenile specimens that are from the same collection and would have been available to Chapman for the description of caucae. The nine paratypes are: AMNH 110040–110042, 110044–110046, 110048– 110050, three males, three females, one sex?, and two juveniles, all collected on Cerro Munchique between 23 and 30 May 1911. The specimen that had been AMNH 110043 was exchanged to O. Bangs in September 1918 and would not have been available to Chapman when he named caucae.
