Two lectoparatypes seen. Type series: The description is based on six syntypes, all recorded under No. 1388 in the Zoological Department of the Gothenburg Museum (now 'Naturhistoriska Museet, Göte- borg', Sweden). The largest and first mentioned specimen (HB = 123 mm) of this series, of which the measurements are listed (Andersson 1916: 20) is hereby designated as lectotype (1388a), while the remaining smaller individuals are lectoparatypes (1388b-f). Etymology: Named in honour of Mr. C. O. Johnson, who financed Mr. Skoog's expedition to Angola. Diagnosis: Tail shorter than in all other species, about 25 °/o of SV length. Eye smaller than in other species and partly overlain by edges of loreal and supraocular. Second upper labial about twice as long as tall and in contact with eye. a.
