Cyclophorus affinis Theobald, 1858

Cyclophorus affinis Theobald, 1858: 246. Hanley and Theobald 1870: 1, 28, pl. 2, fig. 7 and pl. 48, fig. 2. Kobelt 1902: 135. Kobelt 1908: 654.

Type locality.

Maulmein [Mawlamyine, Myanmar].

Type material.

Lectotype (design. n.), NHMUK 1903.7.1.1454 ( Fig. 2C; D =34.9 mm, H=28.7 mm, W=5).

Remarks.

The original description stated this taxon was based on two individuals, and gave the dimensions of both specimens. The single specimen from the Godwin-Austen collection, purchased from Theobald, closely matches the larger of the two measurements given in the original description and figured in Hanley and Theobald (1870: pl. 2, fig. 7). This specimen is designated as the lectotype. The type specimen relating to the smaller of the two measurements could not be located in the NHM collections.
