synonymy Not clear what AM Clark thinks the status of the species is: in her 1984 paper, and in the introductory table to the Seychelles part of the 1980 paper, she lists O. dubiosa as a valid species; in the text of the 1980 paper, and in the synonymy of O. spinosa, she implies O. dubiosa is a synonym of O. spinosa. Cherbonnier & Guille treat O. dubiosa as a junior synonym of O. spinosa. [details]
