  • Lectotype and Allolectotype designated by Bryant, 1943: 451; vial 1 of 2 poor condition. From Bryant: The species Agobardus anormalis Keyserling has long been unique. At the end of the description, Keyserling states, 'North America. In the Collection of the Museum of Comparative Zoology several specimens, with only the notation U.S.' Since it never has been taken anywhere in the United States and it is common in Haiti, it is probable that these specimens were taken by Dr. Uhler in Haiti.
