Type locality: India (Kashmir). Chrysopa ( Chrysoperla ) gujaratensis Ghosh, 1976a: 74 . Type locality: India ( Gujarat ). Chrysopa ( Chrysoperla ) punensis Ghosh, 1976b: 189 . Type locality: India ( Maharashtra ). Chrysopa ( Chrysoperla ) sanandensis Ghosh, 1977: 103 . Type locality: India ( Gujarat ). Chrysoperla zastrowi arabica Henry et al. 2006: 2192 . Type locality: Oman . Diagnosis and notes Chrysoperla zastrowi sillemi is similar to Chrysoperla carnea in external body characters and male genitalia, but it can be distinguished by the basal dilation of pretarsal claws 1/4 or less length of the hook of claws ( Brooks 1994 : fig. 25; Fig. 42F ), as well as the heart-shape female subgenitale ( Fig. 43C ). Redescription Measurements ( ♂ n=2, ♀ n=3). Forewing: length ♂ 13.3–13.4 mm , ♀ 13.0–14.0 mm, width ♂ 4.2–4.3 mm , ♀ 4.2–4.7 mm ; hindwing: length ♂ 12.1–12.5 mm , ♀ 11.5–12.6 mm , width ♂ 3.8–4.0 mm, ♀ 4.0– 4.3 mm ; body length: ♂ 7.8 mm , ♀ 8.1–9.2 mm .

Pretarsal claws with basal dilation 1/3 of the length of hook of claws, quadrate at base ( Fig. 42F ). Wings ( Figs 41A–B ).

Veins green. 11–13 radial cells (r cell). Four Banksian cells (b cell); four lower Banksian cells (b’ cell). Basal crossvein between Rs and M (r-m 1 ) straight, meets at apex of im cell. Two series of gradates, both meet psm; six to seven inner gradates (ig) and seven to eight outer gradates (og). Two intramedian cells; first intramedian cell (im1) ovate. Second (m2) and third (m3) median cells of similar size. Three intracubital cells (two closed); first cubital crossvein proximal to second mediocubital crossvein (m-cu2); first (icu1), second (icu2) and third (icu3) intracubital cells of similar size. Hindwing: Veins pale green. Costal area narrow. Subcostal area with three crossveins below pterostigma. Pterostigma opaque, white. 10–11 radial cells (r cell). Four Banksian cells (b cell); four lower Banksian cells (b’ cell). Two series of gradates, both meet psm; four to six inner gradates and five to eight outer gradates. Abdomen ( Figs 42D–E ). Tergum and sternum pale green, with median longitudinal greyish stripe, covered with pale yellow setae. Male genitalia ( Figs 43F–J ). Tergum 8 (T8) subquadrate in lateral view.
