Attention is here directed to the striking similarity in gonopod structure between sculpturatus as drawn by Silvestri (1908: fig. VIII) and the Central American O. rugifer Attems (1950: fig. 73). I do not imply synonymy of these names, but suggest that a comparison of specimens might prove to be instructive.
