Plexippoides dentatus Wiśniewski & Wesołowska, 2024, sp. nov.

Plexippoides dentatus sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: B3F9DB50-0DAA-41C6-9407-A7E9EAC9D4CC Figs 67–68 Diagnosis The species is similar to Plexippoides biprocessiger (Lessert, 1927) from Congo, but differs by the dentition of the tip of the tibia and the retrolateral basal edge of the cymbium. Plexippoides dentatus sp. nov. has a tibia with three small teeth and a cymbium with two teeth, while in P. biprocessiger the tibia is divided into two branches and the cymbium has a single tooth (compare Fig. 68C with Wesołowska 2012a: fig. 40). Etymology The specific name is Latin, meaning ‘toothed’, and refers to the shape of the tibial apophysis.
