( Figs. 13 View Figure 13 A–C, 14L View Figure 14 , 15O View Figure 15 , 17E View Figure 17 )
Cnemoplites (Cnemoplites) hamali Lameere, 1903a: 43 View in CoL . TL: (probably) Queensland, Australia. Holotype in IRSN (examined).
Macrotoma (Pseudoplites) inexpectata Lameere, 1916: 233 View in CoL . syn. nov. TL: Victoria, Australia. Lectotype in MNHN (examined).
Pseudoplites inexpectatus: Quentin and Villiers, 1981: 393 View in CoL .
Diagnosis. Pseudoplites hamali is morphologically similar to species of Geoffmonteithia, Eurynassa and some species of Cnemoplites . It can be separated from G. queenslanda by having distinct lateral spines on protibia and distinctly longer prosternal process extending well beyond procoxae. It is distinguished from all Eurynassa species by having elongate antennomere 3. Pseudoplites hamali can be separated from Cnemoplites species by having shiny, smooth area on the centre of pronotum.
Types. Cnemoplites (Cnemoplites) hamali Lameere , Holotype female deposited in IRSN, with the following labels “Cbenoplites hamali Lamee. , Type ♀ | hamali Lameere ex. coll. de Moffarts ”.

Molecular data. BioSample ID: SAMN12650112, SAMN12650113, SAMN12650114, SAMN11080877.
Notes. Our examination of both female types found them being morphologically identical and distinguished from Cnemoplites females by the following characters: antennomere 3 long, about 1.5 times of antennal scape and twice as long as antennomere 4; tarsi surface very rough, covered with spines and dense nodules; the whole body more or less flattened dorsally.
