Chimarra gangtokensis sp. nov. , male genitalia. 1, left lateral; 2, dorsal; 3, right inferior appendage, ventral; 4, phallus, left lateral; 5, phallus, ventral. Diagnosis . Chimarra kailishchandrai is similar to Chimarra nepalensis Kimmins 1964 and many other species which have segment IX with anterior and posterior edges almost parallel in lateral view. All of these species have very long and broad inferior appendages, but C. kailischandrai has a very long and distinct shape of the lateral lobes of tergum X (bent S-shaped). Distribution. India (Andaman & Nicobar Islands ) Remarks : The spelling of the species epithet is unfortunate. In the original description, Malicky (1997) consistently spelled the epithet as “kailishchandrai” and provided the following etymology: “This beautiful species is dedicated to Dr. Kailish Chandra with compliments.” Dr. Chandra’s given name is actually spelled Kailash. Because there is no evidence of an inadvertent error in the original publication itself, The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature ( International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature 1999 , as amended 2020, Article 32) precludes emendation of the original spelling.
