Phortica ( Ashima ) angulata : Chen & Máca, 2012: 507 . Diagnosis. Aedeagal, median rod apically with 2 claw-like projections (“Fig. 16” in Chen & Máca 2012 ). Supplementary description. Supracervical setae approximately 11. Dorsomedial, tentorial apodeme 3/4 as long as basal, parallel portion of dorsolateral, tentorial apodeme. Arista with arb = 2/0; apical, leaf-like expansion distally dilated, apically with small, awn-like projection. Cibarial, medial sensilla 7–8 per side; posterior sensilla approximately 6 per side. All tarsi entirely yellow. The antisymmetry is observed in the postgonites: in A-type, the left postgonite is a broader, large plate with 2 moderate and 1 small, strongly sclerotized projections and 1 long, less sclerotized process, but the right one narrower, with 2 long, strongly sclerotized projections and 1 long, less sclerotized process (“Figs 16, 17” in Chen & Máca 2012 ); but in B-type, vice versa . Specimens examined. Kenya : holotype ♂ (B-type), Kakamega Equatorial Forest , 11.x.2002 , S. Prigent leg. ( MNHN ); 1♂ paratype , ditto, except 11–23.x.2002 ( MNHN ) . Distribution. Kenya .
