The
H. dentifascia
species-group
Diagnosis
. In the male genital capsule of the group, the distal costal process is directed dorsally (whereas it is directed distally in the
saldaitisi
species-group), the distal lobe of valva is large and strongly elongate distally (it is very short in the
saldaitisi
species-group), the distal saccular process is extremely long and smoothly curved dorsally (it is vry short and slightly curved in the
saldaitisi
species-group), and the medial costal process is usually present (reduced only in
H. vanlanga
sp. n.
) (it is absent in both known species of the
saldaitisi
species-group). The aedeagus vesica bears fields of weak granulation and a cluster of numerous small conical cornuti subbasally in certain species, whereas the vesicae of species of the
saldaitisi
species-group bear clusters of spinules. In the female genitalia, the ductus bursae is wide (in the
saldaitisi
species-group it is markedly narrower) and the corpus and the appendix bursae bear clusters of numerous tiny spinules (which are robuster in the
saldaitisi
species-group).
