3 female syntypes from BRAZIL: Pernambuco: "♀ [glued onto mounting block]", "[J. P. Fonseca’s handwriting] Tapera View in CoL \ Pernambuco ", "[J. P. Fonseca’s handwriting] Tylopelta View in CoL \ appendiculata View in CoL \ Fons [eca].", "902", "[red label] Cotype", "Coleção \ PINTO DA \ FONSECA" [2 syntypes missing the label “902”]. Specimens double-mounted on minuten, with surface contaminants. First female [with label “902”]: left prothoracic leg lacking tarsomeres. Second female: left prothoracic and right metathoracic leg broken distal to femur, left mesothoracic leg lacking tarsomeres. Third female: right prothoracic and left mesothoracic legs lacking tarsomeres.

Syntype male, same locality as previous, "♂ [glued onto mounting block]", remaining labels identical as female syntypes, except for missing label “902”. Double-mounted on minuten, in excellent state of preservation. Remarks. Fonseca (1936a) included one female and one male in the type series. Four conspecific specimens labeled as types were examined and all bear identical collection and determination labels, written by Fonseca.
