Pseudohercostomus allini Negrobov 1988

Description

Pseudohercostomus allini Negrobov, 1988

Negrobov, 1988: 79 (figs. 1, 2: hypopygium).

The type material of this species could not be located and hence a number of key characters of the genus Pseudohercostomus could not be verified. The presence of uniformly distributed small bristles on the anterior part of the mesoscutum, a wide metepimeron, and the rows of anterodorsal combs on mid and hind tarsi remain unknown. The species might even not be congeneric with Pseudohercostomus.
