COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the holotype was given in the original description.

AMNH 251315 About AMNH , 251321 About AMNH , and 251389 were exchanged to ZMB in July 1936 ; AMNH 251365 About AMNH and 251402 were exchanged to ANSP. I did not find ANMH 251327, 251331, 251337, 251339, 251354, and 251369. These were probably exchanged to other museums without the catalog having been so marked .
