Remarks The unidentified males of Szepligetella collected during the 2016 and 2017 “Our Planet Reviewed”

expeditions are listed here. Based on the identification key and diagnoses in Balhoff et al. (2013) these males belong to either S. irwini or S. levipetiolata . The only criteria to separate the males of these species is the presence or absence of long setae. The males examined show a great variability in head pilosity, as well as size (BL from 3.9 to 7.4 mm) or coloration of front leg (from totally black to tibia and tarsomeres orange). We prefer here to not assign these males to either S. irwini or S. levipetiolata . The use of DNA barcoding would be of great help to determine males of Szepligetella and redefine the species delimitations.
