Nactus pelagicus undulatus ( Kopstein, 1926)

(Fig. 16)

Type locality. Elat, Kei Besar ( Kopstein, 1926).

Distribution in the Kei Islands. We did not collect this species on any of our surveys, but Kopstein (1926) reported it from Elat, Kei Besar.

Natural history. As this subspecies is known only from a single specimen on Kei Besar, little is known regarding its natural history. Across its range it is terrestrial and commonly found foraging on the forest floor at night ( Cogger, 2014, p. 376).
