Name

Cryptops orthus Chamberlin, 1951 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

  • Cryptops orthus Chamberlin, 1951[1] Publ. Cult. Cia. Diamant. 10: 108
  • nec Cryptops philammus : Demange, 1968 Biol. Gabonica 4: 292.

Diagnosis

(Data from Chamberlin 1951[1]). Length: 9 mm. Without dark subcutaneous pigment. Cephalic plate without sutures. Anterior margin of forcipular coxosternite nearly straight with 3 fine setae on each side. Posterior margin of sternite 21 “gently convex”. Pore field widely separated from caudal margin of coxopleuron, with comparatively few pores. Setae of prefemur and femur of ultimate leg fine rather than spine-like; with 4 tibial and 3 tarsal saw teeth.

Distribution

Angola.

Remarks

The limited data provided by Chamberlin (1951)[1] do not allow Cryptops orthus presently to be separated from Cryptops nigropictus, Cryptops decoratus or Cryptops melanotypus nor from the inadequately described Cryptops campestris from Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is not, as Demange (1968)[2] supposed, a junior synonym of Cryptops philammus which belongs to the doriae group of species. The type material should be examined, however, Rowland Shelley (personal communication) writes “Cryptops orthus appears to be lost, as it is not included in my listing of any museum, including the MCZ [Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University], which also has many Chamberlin types.” It is here regarded as a nomen dubium.
