Elaphropeza exul Osten-Sacken, 1882: 113 View in CoL (female).

Material examined. Holotype female labelled: Philippinen [hand-written]; 349; Elaphropeza exul O. S. / Type [hand-written by Osten-Sacken]; coll. Oldenberg ; Holotypus [red]; Typus [dark red, crossed] ( DEI) .

Taxonomical note. Osten-Sacken (1882) described this species from a single female taken from the Philippines. The holotype is deposited in the DEI Collection and it is in fairly good condition. While examining the type specimen we found that Osten-Sacken identified incorrectly the genus. Consequently, this species is transferred as Crossopalpus exul (Osten-Sacken) comb. nov. The re-description of this species will be given in a separate paper (Grootaert & Shamshev, in preparation) .
