( Figs. 1, 2 View FIGURES 1 – 2 )

Elacatophora robusta Schaufuss, 1884: 404 View in CoL ; Csiki, 1919: 3.

Type material studied. Holotype (female) ( Fig. 1 View FIGURES 1 – 2 ) with the following six labels ( Fig. 2 View FIGURES 1 – 2 ): "Giava, Tcibodas Ott. 1874, O. Beccari" (white, printed in black, in black frame), " TYPUS " (white, printed in red, in red frame), " Elacatophora robusta Schauf. " (white, handwritten in black, in black frame), " HOLOTYPUS, Elacatophora robusta Schaufuss, 1884 " (red with black margins, partly printed, partly handwritten in black), "cfr.scheda N. 3576" (white, partly printed, partly handwritten in black), and "Museo Civico di Genova" (white, printed in black) ( MCG).

Remarks. The holotype female of E. robusta is nearly identical to females of E. maxima (Jałoszyński) (ex Borneosabahia ), also known to occur on Java. Elacatophora robusta matches the body size and proportions of E. maxima , except antennomeres. In E. robusta antennomere 10 is nearly as long as broad, with the length/ width ratio (L/W) 0.95, while in E. maxima it is distinctly broader than long, L/ W 0.69. Antennomere 11 is more elongate in E. robusta (L/ W 1.2) than in E. maxima (L/ W 1.06). The type locality given by Schaufuss (1884) as "Tcibodas" is Cibodas, Cianjur Regency, Jawa Barat District, Indonesia.

Distribution. Indonesia: West Java.
