Diagnosis.
Bicellaria collini
is a member of the
B. austriaca
complex of species as defined by Chvála (1991), for characters see under
B. austriaca
. All species of this complex may be easily identified according to the key using the male sex. Males have two rather long and almost equally shaped phallic hooks and broadly U-shaped hypandrial processes armed with rather long setae (
Figs 9–10
).
Distribution.
Mountains of Central and Southern Europe.
Remarks.
This species was described (and hypandrium illustrated) on the basis of four males and four females from “Bayern, Allgäu, Burgegg” (
Germany
).
