simulans Carl, 1932: 506-508 View in CoL , figs 142-149 [ Akreiodesmus ].

Nilgiris: Urwald bei Coonoor, 1700 m, bei Camponotus . Lower Palnis: Maryland, 1600 m, Weide, unter Stein, bei Termiten. Two ♂ and one juvenile.

The MHNG collection contains three specimens in alcohol (MHNG-ARTO-18607). The specimens are placed in a single vial; those from the two localities are separated by a cotton wool plug. One broken male has a data label with “Palnis (type!) written on it. The other two specimens and a small vial containing dissected parts have a data label with “Coonoor juv. ♂ ” written on it. No holotype was designated in the original description and so these specimens are all syntypes.
