Description
Maiestas setosa (Ahmed, Murtaza & Malik), comb. nov.
Material examined. No material examined (see Remarks below).
Remarks. Described from a holotype male and several paratypes from: Karachi, grass, 9.viii.1985, Babar (ZMUK); no type specimens could be found. The original figures are too poor to enable identification of the species.
Maiestas tareni (Dash & Viraktamath) (Plate 2, d; Fig. 11).
Material examined. Pakistan: several specimens (3, Ƥ), Tando Jam, 22.iv.07.
Remarks. The Pakistan material matches a paratype of tareni (Fig. 11 b) from India (BMNH) except that the subgenital plate is very slightly more rounded apically (Fig. 11 c).
Goniagnathini
Remarks. This, one of the most distinctive deltocephaline tribes (see couplet 1 of key), has been recently reviewed by Fletcher & Zahniser (2008). The following two subgenera and species were included in keys to the Indian fauna by Viraktamath & Gnaneswaran (2009).
