Diagnosis.
Karny’s (1934) description of
Tachycines (Gymnaeta
)
brevicauda
suggests that it is very close to
Tachycines
(
Gymnaeta
)
coomani
, but obviously differs in body size. This species was synonymized by
Storozhenko, 1990
with
Tachycines
(
Gymnaeta
)
coomani
Chopard, 1929
. Here we consider that these two species should be regarded as two independent valid species for the differences in body size, subgenital plate of female and male genitalia.
