Family Camptandriidae View in CoL

The male gonopore opens on the sternal region situated just on the vertical slope of the sterno-abdominal cavity, immediately below suture 7/8 ( Guinot 1979a: 212, fig. 53C, pl. 26, fig. 5). In Moguai elongatum a narrow portion of sternite 8 is exposed, being notched by the gynglyme that receives the P5 coxo-sternal condyle. In species with a wider thoracic sternum ( Baruna trigranulum , Camptandrium sexdentatum , Ilyogynnis microcheirum , Paracleistostoma depressum , Paratylodiplax derijardi ), the gonopore is situated practically at the extremity of suture 7/8 so that a broader portion of sternite 8 remains exposed. The Camptandriidae , assigned to Ocypodoidea Rafinesque, 1815 ( Ng, Guinot & Davie 2008) and characterised by a geniculated G1 (Serène 1974; Manning & Holthuis 1981; Harminto & Ng 1991; Tan & Ng 1999; Rahayu & Ng 2003; Ng, Rahayu & Naser 2009; Ng, Clark & Tan 2010; see Ng & Clark 2012), should now include in its diagnosis information on the location of the male gonopore. For supporting molecular phylogeny and behavioural patterns see Kitaura et al. (1998: fig. 5).
