Ordo: Siphonaptera
Familia: Rhopalopsyllidae
Genus: Ectinorus
Name
Ectinorus deplexus Smit – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Ectinorus onychius onychius Jameson and Fulk 1977:402 (mis-identification)
- Ectinorus onychius deplexus Smit 1987[1]: 120; Beaucournu and Gallardo 1992[2]: 100; Alarcón 2000[3]: 13. stat. n.
Material Examined
Chile, Santiago Province: La Parva, 3000m, ex Eunomys noelli (sic!) [Euneomys noei] = Euneomys mordax Thomas, Geo. Fulk (♂ holotype and ♂ paratype) (BMNH).
Diagnosis
Female unknown. Setae on mesal surface of hind femur longer and more numerous (17) than other species (Fig. 9). Similar to Ectinorus angularis in the number of large setae on the caudal margin of the telomere, but distinguished by the much shorter length of the telomere from its apex to the upper margin of the acetabulum (Fig. 2).
Remarks
Ectinorus deplexus is known only from the type locality at an elevation that is more than three times that of the other two species of the subgenus Ichyonus. Elevational limitations may prove to be a factor in the distribution of other Ichyonus species. The two males are also notably larger (2.8mm) than males of Ectinorus onychius (2.1mm; n=11) and Ectinorus angularis (2.4mm; n=2).
