These two specimens were examined by Navás who mentions them in his original description and has labelled them as "type". Both specimens are labelled Disparomitus congensis (misspelling) by Navás. Tjeder labelled the male specimen as lectotype of Disparomitus congoensis Navás but never published this designation.
