Dear Fernando,

Thank you for your lucid summaries and bibliographical references of
the recent papers by Lowrie.

Of all the relevant types, this is the only one which I did know
already (cf. the cp database; BTW, I don't think a lectotypification
was necessary here, as both sheets are obviously duplicates from the
same collection). How about the types of all the *new* taxa? They
will doubtlessly be held at PERTH (and were probably collected in the
mid-1990ies by Allen Lowrie himself).

TNX again.

Kind regards
Jan
