COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the holotype was given in the original description, but the number of specimens was not. Measurements were not given for the entire series nor were specimens listed in Mayr and Gilliard (1954: 346). Specimens in addition to the holotype collected in 1950 in the mid-mountain grasslands of the Hagen and Kubor ranges are paratypes: AMNH 705124–705147. AMNH 705133 was sent to the AM in 1953 and AMNH 705138 and 705139 were exchanged to FMNH in the 1960s.
