Macassar (Celebes). One ♀ and one juvenile.

The MHNG collection includes two specimens in alcohol under the name Livoneca lunelii , each in a separate vial. Each vial contains a typewritten label “ Livoneca lunelii HALLER , syntype transféré en alcool 17.IV.1985” and a small label printed on yellow paper with a hole made by the original pin reading “MACASSAR”. The larger specimen also has a label handwritten in pencil “ Livoneca Lunelii Haller, Mère et juvénile individu. Fixé contre la surface interne de l’Upneus [sic] indica Shaw” on one side and “Trouvé par G. Lunel, Don de Dr G. Haller” on the other. This label has four holes, having been folded twice and placed on a pin. Haller stated that the specimens came from a specimen of Upeneus indicus Shaw, 1803 (now Parupeneus indicus ). These specimens are syntypes.
