LECTOTYPE (designated by Guinot & Tavares 2003). — MNHN-B2, unknown location, Astrolabe exp., det. Dromia caputmortuum, Guinot & Tavares det. Dromidiopsis edwardsi , ♀ 24.3 × 22.6 mm, dry, left P4 and both P5 missing, abdomen detached. — Original label: “ Dromia caput-mortuum Latr., Exp. de l’Astrolabe ”.

PARALECTOTYPE. — MNHN-B1, without any data, ♂, dry, much damaged. — Original label: “ Dromia caput-mortuum Latr. ”.

REMARKS

The two dry lots labelled Dromia caputmortuum by H. Milne Edwards (1837), without locality (MNHN-B1 and MNHN-B2), constitute the syntypes of Dromidiopsis edwardsi (see Rathbun 1919: 197; McLay 1993: 137). The type status was considered unknown ( Davie 2002: 163). The female specimen MNHN-B2, with the mention “Exp. de l’Astrolabe”, was selected as lectotype by Guinot & Tavares (2003: 63); the remaining individual is the paralectotype.
