49) Pseudoteratura (Pseudoteratura) elaphocerca (Karny, 1926, Xiphidiopsis) comb. n.

1♀: MALAY PEN.: SE Pahang / Rompin Mining Co. / Railway Track, 45km / 2.III.1961; K.J. Kuncheria / Collector / BISHOP

Note. This female with subgenital plate long rectangle, posterior margin slightly concaved in middle; ovipositor rather long, thin and straight, with acute apex, which agrees with Karny’s figure (1926: 132) quite well.

Based on male morphology of Xiphidiopsis elaphocerca Karny, 1926, the elongated epiproct, the proper generic status of this species should not be in Xiphidiopsis, apparently is better to be in Pseudoteratura (Pseudoteratura) than in Dinoteratura, which bears indistinct male epiproct, though pronotum disc without brown and/or yellowish median stripe in dried specimen, male cerci rather simple.
