longipes Carl, 1913a: 222-224 View in CoL , figs 14- 18 [ Cordyloporus ]. Idenau , Kamerun. Museum Senkenberg. One ♂ and more than one ♀ .

The MHNG collection contains one specimen in alcohol (MHNG-ARTO-18533). The specimen has a pin running the length of the body and is accompanied by a vial containing dissected parts including gonopods. The identification labels in the jar have “Idenau, Kamerun ” and “ Kamerun ” written on them respectively, indicating that the specimen is part of the type series. A handwritten label in the jar states that Hoffman selected the specimen as lectotype in 1960, but it is not clear whether the designation was formally published; this specimen is hereby designated lectotype. The SMF collection contains two specimens in alcohol: a ♀ labelled “Paraty” ( SMF 100) and a ♀ labelled “ Typus!” ( SMF 101), both of which are now paralectotypes.
