ellipsoidea Haller, 1880: 386-388, figs 16-17 [ Livoneca].

[Unknown provenance]. Two specimens.

The MHNG collection includes two specimens in alcohol under the name Livoneca ellipsoidea, each in a separate vial. Each vial contains a typewritten label “ Livoneca ellipsoidea HALLER, syntype transféré en alcool 17.IV.1985” and a small label printed on yellow paper with the hole made by the original pin and now

illegible. The larger specimen also has a label “ Livoneca ellipsoidea Hall. Original Exempl.” handwritten by Carl, followed by extensive but barely legible notes in pencil. These specimens are syntypes. Although the provenance was unknown to Haller, the yellow labels indicate that the specimens were believed to be from the Oriental region.
