Corycus intermedius
Redtenbacher, 1892
Redtenbacher (1892)
described a female from
São Tomé
with a long ovipositor (
17.5 mm
compared to
11 mm
in
C. paradoxus
;
Fig. 2 C
) and a coloration similar to a congeneric species from mainland Africa as a new species. The species was never found again. Interestingly, on the island of Bioko also two
Corycoides
species with differing coloration have been found (
Griffini, 1906
).
