Dicranodromia doederleini Ortmann, 1892 View in CoL

Female 21.2 × 14 mm (partly dissected out by Bouvier), near Tokyo (MNHN-B 21683).

Sutures 7/8 of the thoracic sternum converge medially and end in apertures situated slightly behind the level of P3 coxae. Spermathecal apertures are tiny and each is surrounded by a salient transversal thickening (Guinot 1995: fig. 12C). The presence of a well visible spermathecal tube is confirmed, in accordance with the hypothesis of Gordon (1950: 25) who predicted the presence a very short tube in Dicranodromia baffini Alcock & Anderson, 1899 . Skeletal connections occur by interfingering.
