Ablabus nodosus Broun, 1886: 894 . Broun 1893b: 1342. Hetschko 1930: 37. Maddison 2010: 426.

Notoulus nodosus: Hutton 1904: 168 . Hudson 1923: 368.

Type locality: Hooper’s Inlet; near Dunedin [Otago Region] .

Broun number: 1594.

Remarks: Broun mentioned that he based this species on a specimen from Hooper’s Inlet and “2 or 3” others from near Dunedin. Two specimens from Dunedin and Otago, respectively, were located in the BMNH. In order to stabilize this name, a lectotype and paralectotype are here designated from the material of Ablabus nodosus .

Type material examined: Lectotype ( BMNH): card-mounted, “Type [round label with red border] // 1594 [in Broun’s hand] // Otago // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Notoulus nodosus . [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( BMNH): “1594. [in Broun’s hand] // Dunedin // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482.”
