Diagnosis
The males of
M. kenyaensis
gen. et comb. nov.
can easily be distinguished from those of all other species of
Manzuma
gen. nov.
by dorsal bulge on palpal tibia (
Fig. 84
) and palpal patella brown or brownish yellow dorsally, flattened, almost without hairs, iridescent (
Fig. 102
). The females of
M. kenyaensis
gen. et comb. nov.
can easily be distinguished from other
Manzuma
gen. nov.
species by long introductory parts of the insemination ducts (
Figs 90–91, 93
).
