Oxus integer ( Thor, 1901)

Species incerta

Discussion: Thor (1901) described Pseudoxus integer ; later Koenike (1910) synonymized Pseudoxus with Oxus . The specimen described by Thor is aberrant due to the absence of a genital bay.The first coxae with two long setae are similar to those of O. longisetus . However, the description by Thor does not allow an identification, and the type material is lost. Therefore it is better to consider the species as a species incerta .
