In addition to the eight specimens of the new species collected by Parker for the MCZ, we have examined six collected by Harold Cogger of the Austra- lian Museum, and have data on three more collected by Parker and deposited in the Papua New Guinea Museum in Port Moresby (PNGM)—bringing the total for this species to 17. MATERIAL STUDIED A total of 27 specimens of C. siebenrocki were examined. All specimens, except for SMNS 3991-1 and SMNS 3991-2, were col- lected by Parker on mainland New Guinea and the offshore island of Darn. The two SMNS specimens were collected by Miiller on Saibai Island.
