Comments : this species, omitted in the
key Blöte gave in his 1945 paper, is known only by the female
type. It is quite surprising to find a representative of this genus so
far West, the repartition of all the other species being restricted to
Papua and Northen Australia. As the specimen was brought back by an
expedition made by Prince Leopold on his yacht, it may be supposed that
either a labelling mistake was made, or that the bug got onboard the
ship during its stay in Papua, which she visited before
Indonesia, and was then captured during the stay in Sumatra.
