socialis Carl, 1926: 457-459 View in CoL , figs 152-159 [ Siphonophora ].
Neu-Caledonien: Mt. Canala, 700-1000 m, Sept. 1911. Unspecified number of ♂.
The MHNG collection contains seven specimens in alcohol (MHNG-ARTO-14346). The identification labels both have “Ponié, Wald 500 m, N. Caled., Sarasin & Roux” written on them. This corresponds to one of the many localities listed in the original description, but a footnote indicates that Carl based the species on an unspecified number of ♂ from Mt Canala and assumes that the others correspond, and so these specimens should probably not be considered syntypes. The specimens from the Mt Canala locality including several ♂ syntypes are in the NMB (inventory number NMB-DIPL-00387e). Pterozonium socialis ( Carl, 1926) , Siphonophoridae
solitarium Carl, 1909a: 252-253, fig. 1 [ Strongylosoma ].
Sumatra. Mus. Bern. Unspecified number of ♂.
No specimens found in the MHNG. The type series is presumably in the NMBE.
