Condition of type: good condition, meso- and metathorax glued on the pin, apex of right hindwing damaged.

Comments: Esben-Petersen (1917) incorrectly attributed Eidoporismus to Kr̹ger (in litt.) when describing E. pulchellus . The author mentioned that the specimen was collected by Tillyard (Robert “Robin” John Tillyard), who was his friend and also forwarded to him a small lot of interesting material (see introduction of Esben-Petersen 1917). The specimen was part of Tillyard’s collection, which was donated to the NHM by Mrs Patricia “Pattie” Tillyard in 1939.
