Craspedochaeta transversa View in CoL species group

The Craspedochaeta transversa species group is most easily recognized on the basis of an additional pair of reclinate fronto­orbital bristles at the anterior margin of the frons ( Fig. 8 View FIGURES 7–9 ). Other synapomorphies (found in most or all species) include lighter bristles and paler notal colouration, united cerci that are often large and plate­like ( Fig. 52 View FIGURES 47–52 ), an elongate basiphallus ( Fig. 59 View FIGURES 59–60 ), atrophy of the distiphallus and the ejaculatory apodeme ( Fig. 59 View FIGURES 59–60 ) and a long subterminal flagellum on the female ventral receptacle ( Figs. 67–77 View FIGURES 67–70 View FIGURES 71–77 ).

The order of species descriptions reflects the order in which the species appear on the cladogram ( Fig. 116 View FIGURE 116 ).
