Remarks

This species was described from “numerous” females. Other syntypes were apparently in Borgmeier’s collection. One female was found agreeing with Borgmeier’s description, and although this specimen is labelled as a “ paratype ” and “cotype”, since neither a unique holotype or lectotype has yet been fixed, the type series is still syntypic (Article 73.2). The syntype is mounted on a card point and has the head missing.
