Remarks.
This new species can be distinguished from other species in this genus by the style apex resembling a sickle in lateral view, the pre-atrial process surpassing the aedeagal shaft and the absence of processes on aedeagal shaft.
Etymology.
The specific epithet is derived from the Latin “drepanoides”, referring to the style apex resembling a sickle or hook in lateral view.
