Candéze based his description on material ‘communiquée par M. Dohrn’. There 
is no means of discovering whether Candéze retained the material or whether he 
returned some or all of it. For the history of the Dohrn collection see p. 274. Since 
neither of the IZPAN, Warsaw specimens bear Candéze’s determination label, I 
have selected the specimen in the BMNH which is known to be from the Candéze 
collection as the lectotype.
