Arthrhoplophora paradoxa Berlese , 1910a, p. 267; Lombardini, 1936, p. 38.

Arthroplophora paradoxa , Berlese, 1913, p. 102, pl. 8 figs. 96, 96a, 96b, 96c 1).

In the Berlese Collection 4 slides of the species are present, viz. the nos. 132/7, 8, 9, 10 with specimens from Java; they are all designated as type. None of them is suited for a supplementary description.

Berlese (1913) published, however, four drawings that reveal some remarkable characters. I point for instance to the unique neotrichy of the notogaster, the special strukture of the claw segment, and the long terminal hairs of the palp. These characters will certainly be sufficient for identification.

1) In the explanation of pl. 8 Berlese erroneously refers to figs. 95a, b, c.
