. Mayer (1903) only provided the lateral view figure of the male and the female and his description is very concise. During a visit of one of the authors of the present study (JMGG) to the Muséum nacional d’Histoire naturelle, Paris, the type material of this species was located. Both the male and the female were in agreement with the lateral view figures provided by Mayer, and detailed figures and description are provided in the present study.

Unfortunately, only two specimens constitute the type material of Mayer, and the different pattern of body projections arrangement in male and female cannot be confirmed in other specimens as a constant character. Larsen (1997) also found differences in body projections between male and female of
