Notopterophorus elongatus Buchholz, 1869

( Fig. 92B, C View FIGURE 92 )

Material examined. 4 ♀♀, 1 ♂ (MNHN-IU-2018-1917) and 1 dissected ♀ (figured) from Phallusia mammillata (Cuvier, 1815) , Banyuls-sur-Mer, France.

Remarks. The female of N. elongatus has short filiform processes on the dorsal wings of the pedigerous somites. There are 3 filiform processes on the dorsal wing of first pedigerous somite, two processes on each wing of the second and third pedigerous somites, and a single process on the wing of the fourth pedigerous somite ( Giesbrecht, 1882; Illg & Dudley, 1965). However, other studies have indicated that these processes are sometimes absent (e.g. Buchholz, 1869), or present only on some of the wings ( Fig. 92B, C View FIGURE 92 ).
