Issue
New genus combination, description and illustration of a specimen (not type) with a short note on the holotype in Bleeker (1864:11, pl. 1 fig. 3, pl. 3 fig. 2); van der Stigchel (1946:164) also gives a redescription of species based on same two specimens; see Boeseman (1972:305) for identification of the holotype and discussion on type locality.
