In the male genital structure, the uncus with the apical triangle cut and the phallus obliquely cut at apex of the new species are similar to

The authors name the species in recognition of Francis Luma Ewome, locally well known as
|
||
<normalizedToken originalValue="‘Escobar’">'Escobar'</normalizedToken>
|
||
, a very well trained guide on Mount Cameroon. Over the years, he became instrumental in organising and implementing the field expeditions, and also became a good friend to the last three authors of this paper. It could be stated that the research would have been extremely difficult without the selfless help of Escobar.
