Mesovelia
cf.
horvathi
auct.
M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: PA12, 3 apterous males, 3 apterous females.
Notes. This species was previously treated under the name
Mesovelia horvathi
LUNDBLAD, 1933
(e.g.,
GAPUD 1986
,
FREITAG & ZETTEL 2012
,
ZETTEL 2014
). However, in a recent study on the Indian fauna (
JEHAMALAR et al. 2019
), more details about this taxon – originally described from
Java
– became known, so that Philippine populations probably belong to one or several undescribed species (see also
PELINGEN et al. 2020
).
