He mentioned three paratypes although he actually lists four: “Three paratypes: two adult females (one in Mus. Vert. Zoöl.) and a juvenile, with the same data; a juvenile specimen from Sakahen, eastern Formosa, alt. 1,100 meters, July 13, 1934 ”. While it appears that only one specimen should be extant in the MVZ collection, their database lists two further specimens with the same collection data as the holotype (MVZ 23357 –58, 23357 listed as paratopotype) and one specimen from Sakahen that has been collected by Gressitt on 13 July 1934 (MVZ 23359). As neither the CAS online database nor the handwritten catalogue by Slevin lists further specimens collected by Gressitt we consider MVZ 23357 –58 as paratypes. As Gressitt’s statement regarding the number of paratypes is ambiguous we do not list MVZ 23359 as paratype although it was part of the original series collected by Gressitt.</p> <p>J. brevipes has been treated by most authors as a junior synonym of J. swinhonis since Okada (1937) considered them conspecific. Ota (1989b) revalidated J. brevipes to full species rank.

In his Herpetology of Japan (1907: 191) he only listed seven specimens, the ones listed above. He designated USNM 36505 as the type, which we understand is actually the holotype. Consequently, the remaining specimens are considered paratypes. Stejneger (1907) erroneously stated that the collection date was May 1899, i. e. after the original publication.</p> <p>Van Denburgh (1912) synonymized J. mitsukurii with J. swinhonis and treated it as conspecific with or a subspecies of the latter. Most subsequent authors followed this classification until Ota (1988b) initially showed that J. mitsukurii represents a valid species and that J. swinhonis formosensis had to be considered conspecific with J. mitsukurii. In a later publication Ota (1991a) revised this classification and stated that J. mitsukurii, and consequently J. swinhonis formosensis, constitutes a junior synonym of J. swinhonis (= Diploderma swinhonis).</p> <p>Japalura ngoclinensis Ananjeva, Orlov &amp; Nguyen, 2017 = Diploderma ngoclinense (Ananjeva, Orlov &amp; Nguyen, 2017)</p> <p>AHR 8(1): 15</p> <p>Holotype: ZISP 26230, adult female, above <a href="http://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=107.95&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=15.083333" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long 107.95/lat 15.083333)">Mang Xang Village</a>, Ngoc Linh Mountain, Dac Glei District, Kon Tum Province, Vietnam (15°05’ N 107°57’ E, 1650 m asl), coll.

Ota (l. c.) reported three distinct karyomorphs which subsequently proved to be representatives of three different species, namely J. p. xanthostoma (= Diploderma p. xanthostoma), J. brevipes (= D. brevipes), and J. makii (= D. makii) (Ota, 1989, 1989b, 1991a).

However, Brygoo (1988) stated that the holotype is clearly identified as MHNP 1948.45 and both remaining lizards of the series do not have type character. Ota (1989c) showed that chapaensis does not constitute a subspecies of J. swinhonis but represents a species in its own right based on the unique female holotype collected by Bourret. Later Ota &amp; Weidenhöfer (1992) reported a first male topotypical specimen of this species (KUZ 20097).</p> <p>Japalura swinhonis formosensis Liang &amp; Wang, 1976 = Diploderma swinhonis (Günther, 1864)</p> <p>Quart.

Pope (1935: 467) failed to trace the type specimens and Smith (1935) reported them lost. It should be noted that several type specimens of species described by Anderson (1878) in the same publication were listed by Das et al. (1998) for the ZSI collection among them the scincid lizard Mocoa exigua (= Scincella modesta (Günther, 1864)) as well as turtles and tortoises; hence there is a remote chance that the types are still extant in the ZSI collection.

J Hooker</p> <p>Type locality: Sikkim, Northeast India</p> <p>Remarks: Although Günther (1860) only gives the measurements for one of the specimens, the description is based on male and female characters. Günther (1860) mentioned 4 specimens (one from Schlagintweit and three from Hooker). Boulenger (1885: 307) still mentioned this number (specimens a, b–d). However, the museum register of 1946 only has two specimens assigned as types (1946.8.13.98–99) with consecutive numbers. The female specimen from Schagintweit (specimen a in Boulenger) considered to be part of the type series was re-registered separately to NHMUK 1946.8.28.9. One of the specimens mentioned in Günther (1860) and Boulenger (1885) was apparently missing. During a later cataloguing exercise in 1962 two lots were stated missing. In our recent survey we found three specimens to be present in the collection. We could not trace the whereabouts of the fourth specimen and cannot be sure when it was lost. As the characters given in the original publication are concerned with more than one specimen we therefore consider all three currently existing specimens as syntypes.</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F687C85214FF99529FF961FB4AFA9E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
