Neotype ZSI AQTT2 (ZSI/ WGRC/IR/INV 3191), geounit Bombay [details]
From editor or global species database
Editor's comment It is possible the name of Namalycastis glasbyi for this taxon is permanently unavailable from Fernando & Rajasekaran's (2007) paper under ICZN code Art.10.1 (conditions to be met for availability) which requires Art.16.4 to be adhered to, as both subclauses (explicit fixation of a holotype & statement of type deposition in a collection) are not fulfilled. In their investigation of the defects in the original article Magesh et al (2014) preferred to treat the name as available from 2007. [details]

Neotype Magesh et al (2014) report types were not designated in the original publication, the original 4 specimens have been lost, and the original description was ambiguous. They created a neotype, collected from a locality very close to the original collection site. [details]

Type locality (Neotype) Gorai Creek (nearly 3 km upstream), Mumbai, India. 19 12' 10.80" N, 72 47' 31.2" E (19.203, 72.792) [details]
