Achilia pseudangularis Franz, 1996
Achilia pseudangularis Franz, 1996: 118 fig. 68 (aedeagus).
Comments: We have examined the holotype of A. pseudangularis housed in the NHMW. It is a female of an Achilia sp. that is not dissected but is mounted on the same pin as a polyvinyl acetate slide bearing a microcospic preparation of an aedeagus that is very similar to that of species of the genus Achillidia Jeannel, 1962 . According to Franz (1996: 188, fig. 68) the holotype of A. pseudangularis is a male, and the aedeagus he figured corresponds to that in the microscopic preparation. So we selected the mounted aedeagus as being the holotype and, based on its observation, remove the species from the cosmoptera species group. However we decided to investigate in more detail the identity and generic assignment of this taxon in a forthcoming study dealing with the members of Achillidia .
