Comments:
We have not been able to examine the
type
material of
C
.
udo
.
Forel (1905)
referred the affinity with
C
.
fritzi
Emery
in the original description, whereas Menozzi’s key (1935) clearly separated
C
.
fritzi
from other
Orthocrema
species, including
C
.
udo
, by having two pairs of hairs on mesosomal dorsum. Taxonomic relationship of
C
.
udo
with
C
.
fritzi
will remain unresolved until the
type
material is examined.
