Object remarks: NRM 5317 and 5366 previously in one jar. Labels by L G Andersson's hand contradicting. The inner label stating the larger specimen to be Platyglossus leparensis from station Vega 1135, the smaller Platyhlossus hyrtelii from Victoria harbour (=station Vega 1124). The outer labels are assumed by me to be later, added by Andersson while splitting the lot, and correct. They states: NRM 5366 Platyglossus Dussumieri from Vega 1124 (larger) and NRM 5317 Platyglossus leparensis from Vega 1135. This is comfirmed by his catalogue. History slightly obscure. If by chance my assuption is wrong the two localities are quite close /EIÅ, 2009
Locality remarks: Field journal: 'Litoral-djur från, Victoria Harbour på., Labuan. 18-20/Nov. 1879.'
