Remarks[There are several specimens mounted on one sheet. The Parish collection (2452) on the same sheet was originally erroneously given Type status in our database, but in fact, the E. Palmer collection is the Holotype, as clearly stated in the protologue. There is also an E. Jones collection (53) on the same sheet.]
