Type material. The label data and depository of all five type specimens were provided by Bacchus (1974) when he designated the lectotype of Cymophorus pulchellus . These specimens were all collected from Chota Nagpur Plateau in Eastern India by Father Louis Cardon (1857–1946), and three exact sites were given on their labels, i.e., Barway, Nowatoli, and Chandernagore. A missionary residence of the Belgian Mission has been established at the type locality Barway, and Father Cardon was worked at Barway and Nowatoli which both around Gumla of Jharkhand ( Fikáček et al. 2012; Toppo 2019). Furthermore, based on a historical map, Fikáček et al. (2012) pointed out that Barway (ca. 23°08’ N, 84°14’ E) is located at Chainpur. While the exact location of Chandernagore is unknown, perhaps is also a nearby village.
The male lectotype ( BMNH, Figs. 1–4 View FIGURES 1–10 ) is labeled: Chota Nagpore, Barway, R. P. Cardon, VI-VII 1896 // ex Coll. Oberthür. 1913-353 // Cymophorus pulchellus Arrow , type, ♂ // HOLOTYPE // Type // Cymophorus pul-chellus Arr., ♂, M.E.Bacchus det. 1972, HOLOTYPE. Three examined paralectotypes (2♂♂, 1♀) are labeled: 2♂♂ ( MNHN, Figs. 5–8 View FIGURES 1–10 ), Chota-Nagpore, Nowatoli, R. P. Cardon, IX, 1897 // // Cymophorus pulchellus Arr. ♂, M. E. Bacchus 1973, PARALECTOTYPE // PARA-LECTO-TYPE; 1♀ ( MNHN, Figs. 9–10 View FIGURES 1–10 ), Chota-Nagpore, Barway, R. P. Cardon, VI-VIII, 1896 // Cymophorus pulchellus Arrow , co-type // Cymophorus pulchellus Arr. ♀, M. E. Bacchus 1973, PARALECTOTYPE // PARA-LECTO-TYPE. The unexamined female paralectotype from Chandernagore is preserved in RMNH now ( Arrow 1910; Bacchus 1974), but it has not been mentioned by Krikken (1977) when he clarified the taxonomy of Asian Cremastocheilini genera.
Other material examined (1♂, 2♀♀). INDIA: 1♂ ( BMNH), RAMGANGA V. Kumaon, 8.24, 3500-5000 // E. Ramganga V., Kumaon, 5000 ft. India , H.G.C. // Cymophorus pulchellus Arr., G.J.Arrow det. // H. G. Champion Coll., B.M. 1953-156 ; 1♀ ( MNHN), India ; 1♀ ( MNHN), Nagpur // Cymophorus pulchellus Arr., G. Ruter det.19 .
Distribution. India.
Remarks. Cymophorus pulchellus pulchellus is very scarce, only known from the eight specimens. Most are from Chota Nagpur Plateau in Eastern India, and the male from the Ramganga valley in Uttarakhand, North India which represents the northernmost and an isolated record of this subspecies ( Fig. 34 View FIGURE 34 ).
