Name
Orthomorpha banglangensis Golovatch, 1998 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Orthomorpha banglangensis Golovatch 1998[1]: 38 (D).
- Orthomorpha banglangensis – Enghoff 2005[2]: 97 (M, R).
Holotype
♂(ZMUC), Thailand, Yala Prov., Ban Lang National Park, 6°04'N, 101°11'E, lowland tropical rainforest, < 400 m, 20.10.1991, leg. M. Andersen, O. Martin & N. Scharff.
Descriptive notes
Coloration of alcohol material upon long-term preservation probably faded to dark castanceous brown with contrasting pallid paraterga, middle part of prozona, epiproct, venter and pleurosternal carinae (Fig. 79).
Remarks
The original description of this species was so complete and detailed (Golovatch 1998[1]) that no redescription seems to be necessary. Instead, we only provide new illustrations (Figs 79 & 80) showing the coloration, structural details and gonopod conformation of Orthomorpha banglangensis, based on the holotype.
