We are pleased to dedicate this species to Claus Bätke (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit GTZ). Acting as leader of the &quot;Tropenökologisches Begleitprogramm&quot; (TÖB) his personal efforts were crucial for the establishment of BIOPAT in 1999. Therewith, he decisively contributed to the support of biodiversity research and nature conservation in tropical countries, including
