Popis: Anaxius obesus F��hraeus, 1870 (Figs. 1E, 5) Anaxius obesus F��hraeus, 1870: 307.- Koch, 1958: 211. Notes. F��hraeus (1870) did not specify the number of studied specimens, however from the context it seems to be clear that he was dealing with at least two specimens. Therefore, a lectotype designation is needed to fix the taxonomic status of the genus and the species. Material studied. Lectotype, designated here, male (TMSA): ���Caffra- / ria���. Paralectotype, male (TMSA): same data as holotype. Other material, male (TMSA): " Lichtenburg / Transvaal / Dr. Brauns ", male (TMSA): " Plansberg / XI.1950 / P.L. Breutz "; 2 males (TMSA): " S. Afr.; Limpopo Prov. / Mabote farm / 24.07 S ��� 28.39E ", " 12.12.2009 / in the Waterberg / leg. Ruth M��ller "; male (TMSA): ��� S. Afr.: Transvaal / Pienaars River 8km / 25.17S ��� 28.17E, 28.12.1994; E-Y 3234, on ground / leg. CL Bellamy���. Distribution.
