Zinophora mokhotlongensis ( Schubart, 1966)
Poratophilus (Philoporatia) mokhotlongensis Schubart, 1966: 163 ; Demange 1983; Hamer 1998.
Type material (not examined): LESOTHO: 2^, Mokhotlong [2929AC], 6.vi.1951, one creeping on wet grass field and the other on flat heath, leg. SSAE (loc. No. 266) ( MZLU); 1^, Mt Morosi [3027BD], 18.iii.1951, under stones in heath covered with dwarf shrubs ,
leg. SSAE (loc. No. 241) ( MZLU).
This species was described from female specimens. Based on its distribution it is likely to be a Zinophora species of the gracilis group rather than a Poratophilus species, however this will only be confirmed when a male specimen from the type locality is collected. It is here proposed that the name be considered incertae sedis until a male is collected from the type locality.
