elberti Carl, 1912b: 170-171, figs 3-4, text figs D-E [Rhinocricus].

Lombok. Sadjang. Dr. J. Elbert. Unspecified number of ♂ and ♀.

The MHNG collection contains six specimens in alcohol (MHNG-ARTO-18455). The specimens each have a pin running the length of the body. The identification labels in the jar have “Lombock (Sadjang) ex. coll. J. Elbert” and “Lombock Coll. Elbert types!” written on them respectively, indicating that the specimens are syntypes. The SMF collection contains more than seven specimens in alcohol (SMF 1861) under the name Eurhinocricus elberti. The identification label has “Lombok, Sadjang, Elbert, 1909” written on it, indicating that these are syntypes. Rhinocricus elberti Carl was designated as the type species of the genus Carlocricus Jeekel, 2001 in the original description of the genus.

Carlocricus elberti (Carl, 1912), Rhinocricidae
