Supplementary remarks:
This specimen has been compared to (Iso-) type material of Mesotus celatus Mitt. in Hook.f. located in The Natural History Museum, London (BM). I consider it to be taxonomically indistinguishable from the type specimen. I have recorded details concerning the type specimen in a database, q.v.
