Phaenandrogomphus treadawayi Muller & Hamalainen 1993, comb. nov.

Description

Phaenandrogomphus treadawayi (Müller & Hämäläinen, 1993) comb. nov.

(Fig. 2)

Onychogomphus treadawayi Müller & Hämäläinen 1993: 41 –45 (original description ♂, Busuanga);—Hämäläinen & Müller 1997: 268, 305 (listed);— Karube & Sasamoto 2014: 68, 69 (brief discussion).

Material. Holotype: ♂, The Philippines, Palawan region, Busuanga Island, Coron, Mabentangen River, 4–7 v 1991, leg. T. Borromeo, in RMNH, JvT number 11935.

Remarks. The habitus of the holotype is shown in Fig. 2. Müller & Hämäläinen (1993: Fig. 2) gave a lateral view of the accessory genitalia of P. treadawayi but no ventral view of the terminal segment of the penis. In fact the terminal segment of the penis has the same distinctive, bifurcate appearance in ventral view as that of P. s a f e i and mainland species of Phaenandrogomphus. Because of the form of the penis and the shape of the epiproct, P. treadawayi is here included in Phaenandrogomphus. It is most closely related to P. s a f e i; further discussion of these two species and their placement in Phaenandrogomphus is given below.
