COMMENTS: The AMNH number of the type was cited in the original description. The type series consisted of 13 males and nine females ( Mayr, 1931b: 17) ; the 21 listed paratypes are AMNH 227157–227164 About AMNH and 227166–227178. Of these, I did not find AMNH 227176 in the collection. AMNH 227179 About AMNH is an unsexed specimen that is part of the same series, but was not listed by Mayr .
