| Notes |
Distribution: Also distributed around Amboia (Indonesia) and around Archipelago of Mergui (Burma) (Lampert, 1896). [details] Remark: Genus Pseudocucumis not valid anymore. Pseudocucumis africana Semper is treated as a synonym of Cucumaria africana Semper and of Cucumaria assimilis Bell. Ludwig first discribed P. africana as Pseudocucumis théeli Ludwig, but later confirmed the synonymy (Lampert, 1896). [details] | ||||||||||||||||
