Material examined. Type specimens. Male, lectotype by present designation: INDONESIA, Sangihe: Taroena, Woltereck, “35” 1939; labels (Fig. 36c); condition: fair; formerly pinned through right elytron; genitalia in glycerol in microtube; DNA extraction ARC7288 (GenBank # OR557457) (SMTD). Paralectotypes: 12 exx, same data as lectotype (SMTD); 3 exx, Sangihe, Siaoe, Kapete (SMTD).
