Locality remarks: Some object may originate from the de Geer collection (an exchange may have taken place in 1776). The de Geer collection was studied by Linnaeus on several occasions. It also included the collection of Albert Schlosser (obtained by de Geer in 1770) known to contain Pallas types etc. The jars was probably marked by Dalman with a printed insect label (sic.) wich were glued on the jars. Also Dalman added a handwritten label with a rough identification, but these lots dosen't seems to have been included in his catalogue 1824 /EIÅ, 2013.
