Stick insects of Sulawesi, Peleng and the Sula Islands, Indonesia- a review including checklists of species and descriptions of new taxa (Insecta: Phasmatodea) Author Hennemann, Frank H. text Zootaxa 2021 2021-12-06 5073 1 1 189 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.5073.1.1 1175-5326 5760636 AA3269D1-CA2F-4528-BC9D-3A4C75D05BD9 Genus Ramulus Saussure, 1862 ( Figs. 28–35 ) Type-species: Bacillus humberti Saussure, 1862: 472 [= Ramulus pseudoporus ( Westwood, 1859: 42 , pl. 4: 6)], by original monotypy. Comments: This is one of the most speciose genera of Australasian Phasmatodea and due to intraspecific variability in ♀♀ and strong sexual dimorphism obviously comprises numerous synonyms that have yet to be revealed. There-fore, the entire genus deserves a comprehensive revision at the species level. Günther (1938: 58) and Hennemann (1998: 124) have listed the species of Ramulus recorded from Sulawesi . A list of all species that have so far been recorded from Wallacea is presented below. The author is aware of at least four further potentially undescribed species from Sulawesi , but while one is only known from the ♀♀ and is not unlikely be the opposite sex of Ramulus supernumerarius (Brunner v. Wattenwyl, 1907; see comments on this species below), the other three species are only known from single rather incomplete specimens. It is hope that more material of this genus from Sulawesi becomes available to increase our knowledge of the true diversity of Ramulus on the island. Species recorded from Wallacea:
