Rio General (“ Coté pacifique”), P. Biolley (Genfer Museum). Two ♂ and two ♀ .

The MHNG collection contains four specimens in alcohol (MHNG-ARTO-15120). Two of them have pins running the length of the body, and they are accompanied by a small vial containing gonopods. The identification labels have “ types ♂ ♀ Rio General, P. Biolley ” and “ types ♂ ♀ Rio General , Cote Pacifique, P. Biolley ” written on them respectively, indicating that the specimens are syntypes. There is a handwritten note in the jar indicating that Hoffman intended to designate the ♂ with the gonopods removed as the lectotype in 1964, although this does not seem to have been formally published. An undated typewritten note in the jar indicates that Hoffman identified the specimens as Tirodesmus riparius ( Carl, 1902) .
