Comments.

This is the type species of the genus. The species remains known from the male holotype only, collected in Aswan (=Assuan, Egypt). Although it has been redescribed several times, details of its male palp remain unknown. Neither lamella, nor the embolus basis, the course of the seminal duct or position of the cymbial furrow have been depicted or verbally described.
