The MHNG collection contains six microscope slide preparations; 1) a slide (MHNG-ARTO-18632) with a head and first two body rings with a label with “ Glomeridesmus indus n. sp., Mariyanshola” written on it; 2) a slide (MHNG-ARTO-18633) with mouthparts with a label with “ Glomeridesmus indus n. sp., ♂ Mariyanshola” written on it; 3) a slide (MHNG-ARTO-18634) with head and mouthparts and a label with “ Glomeridesmus indus ” written on it; 4) a slide (MHNG-ARTO-18635) with legs with a label with “ Glomeridesmus indus n. sp. ” written on it; 5) a slide (MHNG-ARTO-18636) with legs with a label with “ Glomeridesmus indus n. sp. ♂ juv.” written on it; 6) a slide (MHNG-ARTO-18637) with telopods with a label with “ Glomeridesmidae ♂ Mariyanshola dessin publié!” written on it. These are all parts of syntypes. There are two other slides without any identification label (MHNG-ARTO-18638 and MHNG-ARTO-18639) which may also belong to the type series. The other parts of the specimens appear to have been lost.
