Peters, 1854. Ber. Bekanntmach. Geeignet. Verhandl. Königl. Preuss. Akad. Wiss. Berlin, 1854: 626.
Syntype: RMNH 2274, 1 spec. Loc.: Mozambique. Leg.: W.H.C. Peters.
Remarks. Other syntypes are in the Museum für Naturkunde der Humboldt Universität zu Berlin (ZMB 3349, 3350, 10056-58, 50260, 50290, and 50301-02). According to Boulenger (1882: 34), a syntype may be a specimen in the Natural History Museum in London, from “Mossambique”, received from W. Peters. The type locality (“Mossambique, Boror, Tette”) was restricted to “Tete” by Loveridge (1953: 375).
