Fig. 1C Material studied. 1 ♀ : Yemen : one label " YEMEN , 1101 m , 20 km / W Lawdar, 26-27.III.2007 / N13°53' E45°48' / P. Kabatek lgt." [white, printed] (MHNG) . Remarks. This single female certainly represents a new, undescribed species. It is readily separated from all other females of Corynotopsis by: 1) the larger body, length 2.43 mm, maximal width 0.94 mm; 2) the pronotum slightly longer than wide; 3) the pair of paratergal trichomes, fine, formed by one to two macrosetae; and mainly; and 4) by having the sharp, pointed projection on the end of the abdomen. Due to the absence of a male and taking into account the complicated taxonomic situation in C. scotti (see Remarks for that species), we decided not to formally describe this species.
