The MHNG collection contains one specimen in alcohol under the name Geophilus mexicanus. The specimen and labels are in a large tube, which contains two smaller vials containing body parts. Both of the identification labels state that the specimen is a type, one gives the locality as “ Mexique ” the other as “ Cordova ”. There is also a label written by Crabill in 1960 identifying the specimen as the holotype, but because the type series was unspecified it should be considered a syntype.
