laticollis Carl, 1909b: 346-347 , pl. 7, fig. 39, pl. 8, figs 63-64 [ Odontopyge ].

Biaramuli (Ost-Ussuwi). Unspecified number of ♂ and ♀.

The MHNG collection contains five specimens in alcohol in two vials. The first vial (MHNG-ARTO-18497) contains one broken specimen and, separated by a cotton wool plug, dissected parts including gonopods. A label in the vial states that the specimen was selected as lectotype by O. Krauss. The second vial (MHNG-ARTO-18498) contains four specimens, all broken, and a label stating that they were designated as paralectotypes by O. Krauss. The identification labels in the jar have “Biaramuli J. Carl” and “ types Ost-Ussuwi Dr J. Carl” written on them respectively, indicating that the specimens are part of the type series. Krauss (1960: 179) states that he examined the ♂ lectotye and ♀ paralectotypes which is probably a valid lectotype designation.
