Arrhopalites peculiaris Vargovitsh, 2009

( Fig. 73 )

Remarks. Re-examination of trichobothrial complex chaetotaxy in types of A. peculiaris shows that: seta c1 is very small, about 8 µm (omitted in original description) and lies on the level of trichobothrium C. Seta b1 (assigned as c 1 in original description) is situated almost on the line BC, nearer to trichobothrium C than to B. Seta marked in original description as b1 actually is not b1 and belongs to posterior lateral complex, which thus contains 2 + 3 setae.
