Remarks. Synonymy of Cormocephalus spinulosus Attems, 1928a , with C. multispinosus was proposed by Schileyko and Stagl (2004) and is accepted herein. The assigned specimen from Lesotho ( Figs. 31, 32 View FIGURES 31–34 ) conforms to the examined material from Namibia ( Figs. 33, 34 View FIGURES 31–34 ) with respect to prefemoral proportions and spine arrangements.
