Exechia adenaparva Chandler, 2000

Exechia adenaparva Chandler, 2000: 282 ♂ ( Chandler 2000)

Distribution

Afrotropical, Yemen (Fig. 4 ).

Notes

We did not have the opportunity to re-describe this species, but the male terminalia are well illustrated in Chandler (2000) (Fig. 5 a, b). Dr. Erica McAlister, NHM, provided us with images of the holotype (Fig. 5 c, d), which seems to be in good condition. The holotype is pinned with the abdomen and terminalia dissected and slide-mounted, with five labels: "W. ADEN. PROT. / Wadi Dareija, / S.W of Dahla, / ea. 4500 ft. / 6-9.xi.1937", "B.M. Exp. to / S.W. Arabia. / H. Scott & / E.B. Britton. / B.M. 1938-246", " Exechia / ♂ Exechia adenaparva spn / det. P. J. Chandler / Holotype", "BMNH(E) # / 254408", "NHMUK 012804625".
