Redescription
Scientific Name Notes The authors neither explicitly fixed a holotype to syntypes, nor included a statement of intent that types will be (or are) deposited in a collection and a statement indicating the name and location of that collection. Thus, type material is essentially NOT available. This species is essentially unrecognizable based on its original description. It is therefore considered a species inquirenda.
