A review of the millipedes (Diplopoda) of Namibia, with identification keys and descriptions of two new genera and five new species Author Vohland, Katrin Author Hamer, Michelle text African Invertebrates 2013 2013-06-30 54 1 251 251 journal article 2305-2562 Genus Namibostreptus Mwabvu, 2009 Namibostreptus : Mwabvu et al . 2009: 49 . Type species: Triaenostreptus kymatorhabdus Attems, 1914 , by original designation. Diagnosis: Very large millipedes. Median lamella of gonopod approximately half the length of lateral lamella, and apical region wide with an acute median peak ( Fig. 56 ). Distal half of lateral lamella with large convex lateral lobe, short lateral process and apical, folded process. Telopodite long, looped, with abrupt narrowing distal to the telopodite coil and with a trifurcate ending ( Fig. 57 ). Femoral process strongly curved ( Figs 56, 57 ). Distribution: Only found in the central part of Namibia . Remark: Namibostreptus is currently represented by a single species. Hoffman (1971, 2008) noted that T. kymatorhabdus is distinct because of the form of the coxal folds, and Mwabvu et al. (2009) confirmed the distinction with additional telopodite characteristics. Based on Hoffman’s (2008) diagnosis of the Spirostreptini, Namibostreptus is a member of the tribe; the prebasilar plate, telopodite structure and the trifurcate apex resemble those of other member genera.
