Notocoxelus mucronatus ( Broun, 1911) NEW COMBINATION

( Figs. 190–191 View FIGURES 190–198 )

Coxelus mucronatus Broun, 1911: 98 . Hudson 1923: 369. Hetschko 1930: 47. Emberson 1998: 44. Maddison 2010: 426. Notocoxelus mucronatus: Implied combination based on the erection of the genus Notocoxelus ( Ślipiński and Lawrence, 1997:

404).

Type locality: Pitt Island .

Broun number: This species was listed as number 61 in the paper, but this is not a “Broun number” in the standard sense.

Remarks: Broun did not mention the number of specimens examined. In order to stabilize this name, a lectotype and seven paralectotypes are here designated from the material of Coxelus mucronatus .

Type material examined: Lectotype ( BMNH): card-mounted, “61. ♂. [in Broun’s hand] // ♂ [handwritten] // Chatham Is. [red underline] Broun Coll. B.M. 1922-482. // Pitt Island . - T. Hall- [in Broun’s hand] // Coxelus mucronatus . [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( BMNH): card-mounted, “61. ♀. [in Broun’s hand] // ♀ [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Pitt Island . - T. Hall- [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotypes ( BMNH): 2, individually mounted on separate cards and pins, with identical labels, “61. ♂ [in Broun’s hand] // ♂ [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Pitt Island . - T. Hall- [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( BMNH): card-mounted, “61. ♂ [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Pitt Island . - T. Hall- [in Broun’s hand] // Coxelus ♂ mucronatus. [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( NZAC): card-mounted, “61. ♀. [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand, [typed] Chatham Is. Broun Coll. [in J.C Watt’s hand] // A.E. Brookes Collection ” . Paralectotypes ( NZAC): 2, individually mounted on separate cards and pins, “c.m. ♂. [in Broun’s hand] // 61. [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand, [typed] Chatham Is. Broun Coll. [in J.C Watt’s hand] // A.E. Brookes Collection // [green label] SYNTYPE [typed] Coxelus mucronatus Broun, 1911 [in J.C Watt’s hand]” .
