Name
Abacillius basilewskyi Straneo, 1962 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Abacillius basilewskyi Straneo, 1962: 53 (type locality: “Natal, Drackensberg, Little Berg Summits, Themeda Grasslands, 5500–6000 ft., Cathedral Peak, Forestry reserve”)
Type material
Holotype ♀, “Holotypus” [printed on salmon colored label], “Little berg summits Themeda Grassland 5500–6000 ft.” [printed], “cathedral peak forestry reserve. natal drakensberg. March 1959 B. R. & P. J. Stuckenberg” [printed], “Col. Mus. Congo don. B. Stuckenberg Coll. P. Basilewsky” [printed & handwritten], “Abacillius Basilewskyi n.sp. S.L. Straneo det. 1960 Holotypus“ [printed & handwritten], “RMCA ENT 000019508” [printed] (MRAC).
Remarks
Straneo (1949[1]: 7, 1958[2]: 404) recorded that the onychium of the tarsi in Abacillius aculeatus is glabrous beneath. Subsequently, he described the same characteristics for Abacillius basilewskyi (Straneo, 1962: 54). However, the study of the holotype of the latter species revealed that it possesses the onychium finely setose beneath.
