simulans Carl, 1935: 330 , figs 7-8 [ Orthomorpha ( Orthomorpha) ].
Rungshar-Valley ( Nepal), 11,000’; 27.VI, 29.VI, 9,500’. Tropde (Thibet), 22.VI. One ♂ and three ♀.
The MHNG collection contains one specimen and dissected parts of a second specimen in alcohol (MHNG- ARTO-18558). The specimen in one small vial and some gonopods in another small vial are placed together in a larger tube with a label with “Tropde. Tibet 10,000 ft., 22.6.1924, Mt. Everest Exped. 1924 Maj. R. W. G. Hingston” written on it. The identification labels in the jar have “ ♀ Tropde, Tibet. gonopode ♂ de Rungshar Valley” and “Himalaya, Tibet III Everest exped.” written on them respectively. The original description calls the specimens from Nepal “Typen” (first date) and “Cotypus” (second date), but all of the specimens studied by Carl should be considered syntypes (see Jeekel, 1980c). The other syntypes are in the BMNH.
