Comments.
Habitus (
Figs 100–101
), body size
15–18 mm
. By presence of appendix and by overall shape of endophallus (
Figs 102–104
), as well as by shape of aedeagus (
Fig. 129
), this species belongs to the subgenus
Stenotricondyla
. New combination proposed here.
The listing of the species for the
Philippines
is due to the incorrect synonymy established by Naviaux of
T. cyanipes fuscilabris
Mandl, 1964
with
T. beccarii beccarii
that turned out to be synonymous with
T. conicicollis
Chaudoir, 1844
. Thereby
T. beccarii
should be removed from list of species of
Philippines
.
