( Fig. 74 A, B View FIGURE 74 )

Pseudosmittia remigula Saether, 2004: 299 View in CoL .

Material examined: SEYCHELLES: Mahé, Marc aux Cochons, holotype male, 29.viii.2002, J. Gerlach ( ZMBN Type No. 404). Paratype: 1 male , SEYCHELLES: no other data ( BMNH) .

Diagnostic characters: The absence of an anal point, the long adpressed inferior volsella with a covered accessory lobe, and particularly the paddle oar-shaped gonostylus readily separate the male imago from other species of the genus.

The species, known only from the Seychelles, is described in sufficient details by Saether (2004: 299)
