Lectotype designation by Perret (1962: 244, fig. 2) who provided a photograph of the lectotype.

In summer 1912, he also took part in an operation against the Baminge (Bamije-Expedition) at the eastern frontier of the present day Manyu Division, Southwest Region, Cameroon (Nkwi 1989; Hoffmann 2007; Hafeneder 2008).
