550 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 221 



33282. Adult female. Santa Maria de Dota, Province of San Jose, Costa 

 Rica. Jan. 24, 1864. Collected by Julian Carmiol. Original 

 number 8. 



Baird had nine specimens, of which three (from San Jose and Bar- 

 ranca) would now be held nearer the more recently described comptus; the 

 remaining six, all from Santa Maria de Dota, alone may be considered 

 cotypes of aurantiacus. No. 33279 was sent in 1877 to the Mombusho 

 Museum, Tokyo; Nos. 33277 and 33278 have vanished from the museum 

 without trace. 



No. 33282 is yet another example of a cotype that, having at some time 

 entered Ridgway's private collection, has suffered the loss of its original 

 label.

 30494. Immature (sex not indicated). "San Jose?," Costa Rica. En- 

 tered into the museum register on Nov. 7, 1863. Collected by Alex- 

 ander von Frantzius. Original number 99. 

 30496. Adult (sex not indicated). "San Jose?," Costa Rica. Entered 

 into the museum register on Nov. 7, 1863. Collected by Alexander 

 von Frantzius. Original number 97. 



33283. Adult (sex not indicated). San Jose, Province of San Jose, Costa 

 Rica. Entered into the museum register on Mar. 23, 1864. Collected 

 by Julian Carmiol. 



A fourth cotype. No. 30495, was sent in 1875 to the Princeton Museum of 

 Zoology. 



Nos. 30494, 30495, and 30496 were entered into the register simply as 

 from "Costa Rica." On their labels Baird wrote "San Jose?," but in the 

 original description dropped the query. On tbe label of No. 30496 appears 

 the word "Type" in Baird's own hand; in short, his lectotype is one of 

 the three of dubious provenience. Since No. 33283 would have been a 

 better choice, and since no specimen was indicated at the first description 

 as the type, I list here all of the original series.
