Measurements.
total length: 15.9–17.4; head length: 1.9–2.1; head width: 3.0–3.4; pronotal width: 10.0–11.0; abdominal width: 8.8–9.7; length of antennal segments. I: 0.8–1.0; II: 1.7–1.9; III: 1.2–1.7; IV: 3.4–4.6; V: 4.4; interocular distance: 1.4–1.6; scutellum length: 7.2–8.3; scutellum width: 5.7–6.1; pronotal length: 3.3–3.7.
Diagnosis.
Anterolateral margin of pronotum without solid black stripe. Cicatrices with black punctures delimiting anterior sulci (
Fig. 18G
). Anterolateral margin with few punctures black. Male (
Fig. 4
A–C). Pygophore with dorsal rim widely excavated. Superior process of genital cup small, tongue-like with a dorsal transverse crest; near dorsal rim (
Fig. 4B
). Paramere with a single lobe curved anteriorly, tapering and elongated, margin rounded; shank flat with a developed carina on inner side continuing in a low carina on anterior lobe (
Fig. 4B
). Proctiger with laterodorsal tufts of setae separated by wide tumid ridge; posterior face ogival (
Fig. 4B
). Ventral rim with expansions rounded, flat, level with posterolateral angles in ventral view (
Fig. 4C
); base of each expansion with a conspicuous transverse carina (
Fig. 4A
). Female (
Fig. 4D
). Gonocoxites 8 with posterior margin almost straight, slanting, inner angle acute; sutural border divergent from the base, gonapophyses 8 partially exposed.
Comments.
Breddin (1907)
considered
Edessa dolosa
very similar to
E
.
quadridens
. They can be differentiated by the shape of the paramere and superior process of the genital cup (
Fig. 4B
and
1B
); gonocoxites 8 more flat in
H. dolosus
(convex in
H. quadriden
s
), posterior margin of the gonocoxites 8 more straight in
H. dolosus
(arched in
H. quadriden
s
), (
Fig. 4D
and
1D
).
