Determiner: Andersson, LG Length: Preparation: Liquid

Locality: No data. From the old collection. Oldest label written by J.W. Dalman during the period 1818-1828.
Field Number: KVA-DALMAN Leg: Unknown Date: to 1828

Object remarks: Oldest label by Dalman: "Coluber (C. molochinus Dalm.)". Obviously a manuscript name of Dalman. Specimen/name dosen't easily fit any record in Dalman's Catalogue. Should be compared with Quensel's list of unidentified Coluber from Museum Drottningholm - maybe also with Linnaeus description of Coluber calamarius. Type status can't be excluded. According to Andersson previously in same jar as a specimen of Homalosoma lutrix L.(=Duberria lutrix) /EIÅ, 2008.
Locality remarks: Date of collecting and accession antedates 12 July 1828.
