Skwala

DIAGNOSIS: The male hemitergal processes are knob-like ( Fig. 292), much shorter and stouter than those of Arcynopteryx and Megarcys . Skwala , like Diura and Filchneria , lacks an external epiproct. The female subgenital plate is trapezoidal with a slight emargination posteriorly ( Fig. 293). The nymph is similar to Arcynopteryx , but may be distinguished by the pleural fold extending only through abdominal segments 1 and 2 as well as the presence of serrations on both mandibles, however we did not have sufficient Mongolian specimens, particularly of the unknown A. sajanensis and S. asiatica , to confirm these purported diagnostic characteristics.
