Microtrombicula paramunda (nomen nudum)

( Fig. 5 View FIGURES 3–5 )

Name on slide: Microtr. (M.) paramunda .

Handwritten catalogue: Microtrombicula .

Inscription: Holotype.

Collection data: Ban Theuong, Xieng Khouang, Laos ( Laos, Xiangkhoang, Ban Theuong, 19°23'10''N, 103°10'3''E); ex “ Rattus niveiventer ” – Niviventer niviventer (Hodgson) ; 25 Aug. 1960.

Number(s): 103441, 222.

Remarks: This specimen may be the holotype of Microtrombicula nadchatrami Vercammen-Grandjean, 1965 , which has the same collection data, including number (Vercammen-Grandjean 1965a), and is close to Microtrombicula munda ( Gater, 1932) . According to the original description and Goff (1989), the holotype of M. nadchatrami is preserved in USNM; probably, this statement is wrong. Note, that M. nadchatrami was described from 6 specimens, and 6 specimens labeled as “ Microtrombicula paramunda ” are present in MHNG.
