Viets, 1980 New records — South Australia . 1/0/0, Round Swamp, Bool Lagoon Game Reserve, 12 Oct. 2001 . Victoria . 1/2/0, Glenelg River at crossing with Siphon Road, Grampians NP, 29 Sept. 1997 ; 1/0/0, Glenelg River at crossing with Red Rock Road, Grampians NP, 29 Sept. 1997 ; 6/4/0, Victoria Lagoon, SW of Grampians NP, 30 Sept. 1997 . Remarks — In the key of Cook (1986) L. dentifera and L. longigenitalis Lundblad, 1941 were separated based on characters of the palp. Males, however, are easy to separate by the shape of the genital field. In L. longigenitalis the genital field consists of one sclerite, in L. dentifera the genital field consists of two genital flaps. Distribution — Previously known only from New South Wales ( Smit 1992 ) and reported here for the first time from South Australia and Victoria .
