Type material Holotype MALAYSIA • ♂; Selangor, Bangi, forest; 24 Jun.–1 Aug. 1980; M.R. Wilson leg.; BMNH. Paratype MALAYSIA • 1 ♂; same data as for holotype; BMNH. Description MEASUREMENTS (mm). Body length. ♂: 4.6. COLOURATION. Colour and external features as in generic diagnosis. MALE GENITALIA. Pygofer side longer than basal width in lateral view, without processes. Subgenital plates very long, approximately 4 times as long as basal width, bearing 11 long uniseriate lateral macrosetae. Connective with stem very short, arms widely separated, approximately 4 times as long as stem; a lightly sclerotized lobe on each side. Aedeagal shaft elongate, approximately 5 times as long as connective, evenly tapered to pointed apex and strongly angularly curved at midlength in lateral view. gonopore apical on dorsal surface; basal apodeme very short; preatrium long. Distribution Peninsular Malaysia. Remarks This new species can be distinguished by the long subgenital plates and sickle shaped aedeagal shaft in lateral view.
