This is a species of uncertain validity. Edwards says that 
only the tyfe ~ and @ in the British Museum are synony- 
mous with malayi, but as other specimens have been recorded 
from various and widely distributed localities, these latter may 
represent a valid species, which of course will require a new 
name.
