Porricondyla pilosoides Jaschhof, 2024, sp. nov.
Porricondyla pilosoides sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: B52D8293-940B-4783-AC1C-4D5592C77F72 Fig. 26A‒B Differential diagnosis Morphology Porricondyla pilosoides sp. nov. differs from P. pilosa, a broadly similar species, as follows. The gonostylus of P. pilosoides is broadly rounded apically, with the entire curve occupied by a tooth consisting of countless, irregularly arranged spines (↓ 1, Fig. 26A), whereas in P. pilosa the gonostylar apex is pointed and equipped with a comparatively small brush of spines (Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2013: fig. 102a). Also, the gonocoxal processes of P. pilosoides are slightly bent outwards (↓ 2, Fig. 26A), while those of P. pilosa are slightly bent inwards (Fig. 26C). Apart from these distinctions in terminalia structures, the flagellomeral necks of P. pilosoides are shorter compared to those of P. pilosa; in the fourth flagellomere, the neck is 1.5‒1.6 × the length of the node in P. pilosoides (Fig. 26B) versus twice the nodal length in P. pilosa. Larvae and females of the new species are unknown. DNA barcode CO1 sequences (652bp) of the type specimens are available in BIN BOLD:AEO7195. Search on BOLD’s BIN Database retrieved no further result for this BIN (accessed 27 Aug. 2023). Etymology The specific epithet means ‘ pilosa -like’, an allusion to the close resemblance of the new species to P. pilosa.
