Mus. 1922-482. // Mount Greenland. [in Broun’s hand] // Tarphiomimus tuberculatus. [in Broun’s hand]”. Paralectotype (BMNH): mounted venter-up, “3221 [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Mount Greenland. [in Broun’s hand] // Tarphiomimus tuberculatus. [in Broun’s hand]”.
