Distribution. Australia ( Hedley 1903; Pritchard & Gatliff 1905; Verco 1909; Hedley 1918; Cotton & Godfrey 1931; Laseron 1954; Cotton, 1959; MacPherson & Gabriel 1962; Marshall 1983; Jansen 2000), Australia, Tasmania ( May 1921; May 1923; May 1958; Marshall 1983), Japan ( Okutani 2017), Kenya ( Fowler 2016).

Remarks. Marshall (1983) considered Notosinister robustus Laseron 1954 a junior synonym of Triphora maculosa Hedley, 1903 . Marshall (1983) selected a lectotype and paralectotypes. In AMS, there are specimens marked as”“ paratypes ” (C.64095). However, these specimens were not clearlydesignated by Marshall (1983) nor we have evidence of their status from thecollection since we did not inspect it personally. Therefore, we do not listthem here in the type material.
