Protolobus obscurus Sharp, 1886:422 View in CoL

Catoptes postrectus Marshall, 1931:420 View in CoL new synonym

The form of the scales on the dorsum, the heavily scaled gena ventral of the antennal insertions and the broad triangular tooth at the apex of the protibia place Catoptes postrectus View in CoL in Protolobus View in CoL . The synonymy with P. obscurus View in CoL is established based on overall similarity between the type specimens of the two taxa, the differences between which are encompassed within the level of variation from a series of specimens collected near Oamaru, the type locality of C. postrectus View in CoL .
