FIGURE 1 in Three's Company: discovery of a third syntype of Stegonotus lividus, a species of colubrid snake from Pulau Semau, Lesser Sunda Islands, Indonesia, with comments on an unpublished 19 Century manuscript by the naturalist Salomon Müller

FIGURE 1. An 1841 map created by Salomon Müller (1804–1864), showing approximately the western half of Timor Island in the Lesser Sunda Archipelago. The larger island in the lower left corner of the map is Rote. Semau, the collecting locality of the type series of Stegonotus lividus, is the small offshore island shown just to the left of the southwestern end of the larger island, indicated by the red circle. The chart's title reads: "Kaart van het westelijke gedeelte van Timor bevattende de bezittingen der Nederlanders en van hunne bondgenooten aldaar" [Map of the western part of Timor containing the belongings of the Dutch and their allies there]. The inset at right shows the geological composition of the region (a "geognostic sketch"), which reveals how diverse the geology on tiny Semau ("Samauw") is.
