Remarks.
The new species is similar to
Homoneura
(
H.
)
ozerovi
Shatalkin, 1993
from
Russia
, but the latter has four stout spines on each lobe of male sternite 5. The new species is also similar to
Homoneura
(
H.
)
tesquae
(
Becker, 1895
)
from
Russia
, but the latter has male tergite 6 nearly as high as the sum of the previous three tergites (original description from
Becker, 1895
and Czerny, 1 932) and the latter has six stout spines on each lobe of male sternite 5 (
Papp, 1978: fig. 16
).
Etymology.
The species is named after the collecting locality.
