Hi Jools,

Another latitude/longitude problem with the type locality. This time is placed in the Indian Ocean.

Cheers, Eric

This one was because the type locality was written as 6°05'15.6''S, 50°07'56.9'W and so was missing a ' before the W. It should be 6°05'15.6''S, 50°07'56.9''W, and so has the effect of moving the longitude from 50.167 to -50.167 - bang on Brazil!

Dang they don't make it easy on us (i.e., they don't make it easy on you). Thanks again, Jools.
