Remarks.

Martens (1864) did not mention the number of specimens his description was based upon. The (subadult) specimen found in the ZMB collection does not confirm to the original measurements; it corresponds to the figure given in Martens (1893 [1890-1901]), but not to the figure given in Martens (1873). The current systematic position follows Thompson (2011).

Current systematic position.
