Remarks

Mayr (1879) remarked that the zoologische Hofcabinete included specimens of T. wullschlegeli reared from Malacosoma castrensis eggs, and that the males differed from his reared specimens in color and the proportions of the antennomeres. Numerous additional specimens of T. wullschlegeli (mounted on 8 separate corks) are labeled “G. Mayr, Type ”. The collection also includes moldy host material, probably from the old Hofcabinete.
