Description
‘OEDOTHORAX’ UNCIGER TANASEVITCH, 2020 INCERTAE SEDIS
Oedothorax unciger Tanasevitch, 2020b: 127, figs 1–3, 7–12 (Dm).
Type material: Holotype: India: Meghalaya, Sohra, plateau, 1320 m a.s.l., ♂ 14–26.xii.2013, leg. K. P. Tomkovich (ZMMU). Paratype: 1♂ (ZMMU), together with holotype.
Diagnosis:
Males: This species is similar to many Oriental ‘ Oedothorax ’ species, but can be distinguished by its unique hook-shaped ventral radical process (see figs 8 and 12 in Tanasevitch 2020b).
Females: unknown.Distribution: Only known from the type locality in India.
Remarks: According to the drawings in Tanasevitch (2020), the embolic division of this species resembles those of ‘ Oe.’ kodaikanal, ‘ Oe.’ meghalaya, ‘ Oe.’ uncus, ‘ Oe.’ cunur, ‘ Oe.’ myanmar, ‘ Oe.’ sohra, ‘ Oe. ’ khasi, ‘ Oe. ’ bifoveatus and ‘ Oe.’ stylus and is, therefore, probably closely related to these species instead of Oedothorax s.s..Notes
