Taxon Notes:	This species was previously confused with T. spinipalma - most Australian records of the latter species are actually T. terraereginae, so all Australian records of T. spinipalma need to be checked to confirm their true identity. This species was also described as T. palawanensis Morino & Miyamoto, 1988, which is now a junior synonym. See Serejo, 2009.
