sp. n., the topology of the telopodite apex in this tiny species is surprisingly complex, and I have not yet had a clear view under the scanning electron microscope of the tiny process carrying the opening of the prostatic groove (Fig. 8). The course of the groove before it reaches this process, however, is clearly visible under a light microscope (not shown; see Description, above).
