The type of this species is not to be found. In its place 

 was a mutilated specimen of the American species Lepto- 

 (flossus zonutns ; this probably misled Kirby into including 

 L. turpis in his enumeration of the Ct-ylonese species and 

 writing " very like a species of Iloinoeocerus in appearance."
