| Distribution | Southwest Pacific: Australia, (Lord Howe I.). |
| Quote | Given the relative isolation of Lord Howe Island, the paucity of specimens available for comparisons, and their many shared features, it is possible that the specimens described as H. colemani represent a population of a more widespread species that was subsequently, erroneously, described as H. pontohi. |
