Rothschild 1904, page 315, Syntype of Delias microsticha Jordan, [1912] OD: "Hab. Ogwarra, north of head of Aroa River, May 1903. Several specimens." No holotype is designated and type series clearly based on more than one specimen. Therefore, though this specimen is labeled as a paratype, it must be considered a syntype.
