Object remarks: Labels from Quensel (? - slender type): L: principalis , Dalman (presently lost, but cited by Andersson): Anolius principalis , and Andersson. Probably identical with one of the two specimens referred to in Hornstedt's catalogue (1788).

If Rolander's specimen (the type) was donated to the academy and later catalogued by Hornstedt, that specimen probably was discarded by Sparrman or mixed by Quensel.
