Remarks

ANSP 399418

remarks The original description mentions paratypes 1-6, but also states that 31 specimens were examined. This specimen has “25” inked on it, and was purchased by Rosenberg from Richard Goldberg on November 12, 1995 (for $25), before the species was named. The specimen is therefore accepted as part of the original material.
