Cillurus rivulavis

Quick answer

Type series: Cabanis (1873 c: 319) based this species on one or more males, but entries in the Accession Catalogue of the ZMB indicate that he had just one specimen at his disposal, which is thus the holotype of this species. It is deposited in the ZMB. Holotype: ZMB 21204 (B- 9996), 3, collected by Jelski on an unknown date [= May to September 1871] at " Maraynioc " [= Maraynioc, Peru]. Type locality: " Maraynioc " (Cabanis 1873 c: 319), i. e. Maraynioc, Peru [11.37 ° S, 75.40 ° W]. Taczanowski (1875: 526) wrote about " plusieurs exemplaires de Junin " (several specimens from Junin), but " Junin " was probably understood by him as a region, not as a single locality.
