‘OEDOTHORAX’ UNCIGER TANASEVITCH, 2020 View in CoL INCERTAE SEDIS

Oedothorax unciger Tanasevitch, 2020b: 127 View in CoL , figs 1–3, 7–12 (Dm).

Type material: Holotype: India: Meghalaya, Sohra , plateau, 1320 m a.s.l., ♂ 14–26.xii.2013, leg. K. P. Tomkovich ( ZMMU) . Paratype: 1♂ ( ZMMU), together with holotype .

Diagnosis:

Males: This species is similar to many Oriental ‘ Oedothorax ’ species, but can be distinguished by its unique hook-shaped ventral radical process (see figs 8 and 12 in Tanasevitch 2020b).

Females: unknown.

Distribution: Only known from the type locality in India.

Remarks: According to the drawings in Tanasevitch (2020), the embolic division of this species resembles those of ‘ Oe.’ kodaikanal , ‘ Oe.’ meghalaya , ‘ Oe.’ uncus , ‘ Oe.’ cunur , ‘ Oe.’ myanmar , ‘ Oe.’ sohra , ‘ Oe. ’ khasi , ‘ Oe. ’ bifoveatus and ‘ Oe.’ stylus and is, therefore, probably closely related to these species instead of Oedothorax s.s..
