DiagnosisUnfortunately we had to temporarily remove additional information as this was scraped by multiple AI companies who sell that data to their customers. These details, e.g. detailed descriptions or comparisons (about 2841 characters), are available for collaborators and contributors. Please contact us for details. 
Commentstatus unclear. The CAS holotype catalogue also lists L. a. herrei. 
EtymologyApparently named after Latin auris = ear and “auricula” = earlobe, but not further explained by Taylor 1917.

L. a. kempi was named after Ollie C. Kemp, Mangyan agent in Mindoro, who accompanied Taylor on the collection trip to Naujan Lake and who assisted him in making collections.
