Remarks.
Our
♂
specimens show slight variation in the shapes of the male cercus and subgenital plate and genitalic sclerotization (
Fig. 11
).
Gorochov (2016)
also found variations in these morphologies among specimens collected from Mount Trus Madi and Mount Kinabalu and these variations overlap with that of our new material from Mount Trus Madi.
