Comments. Gondwanoscurus arcuatus , described from Nepal, is a species of this genus previously overlooked by JEŽEK (2002) and CURLER (2009). Relatively few illustrations were given in the original description, making it difficult to compare with other Gondwanoscurus . Nonetheless, figures of the male genitalia provided by VAILLANT (1965) confirm at least that G. arcuatus is more similar to the species from western India and Socotra Island than to any other congeners. Overall, the male genitalia of G. arcuatus , G. jezeki and G. socotrensis are similar, with differences mainly in the length of structures (e.g. gonocoxites, rami of gonostyli, epandrial claspers).
