Name
Loboscelidia cervix Maa & Yoshimoto – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Loboscelidia cervix Maa and Yoshimoto 1961[1]: 546. Holotype male; New Britain: Vudal, near Keravat (BPBM).
Material studied
New Britain: near Keravat only the holotype was seen.
Diagnosis
This is one of two species, including Loboscelidia parva, known from New Britain. Both have the notauli not reaching the posterior margin of the scutum (Fig. 23) and the frontal projection sublinear in front view. Loboscelidia cervix can be distinguished from Loboscelidia parva by the shorter scape (2.6–2.8× as long as broad in Loboscelidia cervix, 3.0–3.1× in Loboscelidia parva), Rs more than 3× as long as R (less than 3× in Loboscelidia parva), cu-a longer than R (shorter in Loboscelidia parva) and partial scrobal sulcus (absent in Loboscelidia parva). The Australian species Loboscelidia ora is the only other Loboscelidia with long cu-a longer than R.
