<paragraph pageId="4" pageNumber="73">The species has three subspecies, which are isolated geographically, occurring in restricted regions (Fig. 9). They are very similar morphologically and show (at least on material we have) no much variability in their morphology. Comparisons are given as separate notes after the descriptions.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="4" pageNumber="73">Here, we discuss the variability of the nominative subspecies, which is more widely distributed (Fig. 9). This subspecies demonstrates variability mainly in shape of the apex of median lobe and setation of the subdistal part of the paramere. The truncate margin of the median lobe apex varies from almost straight (especially specimens from Manokwari) to slightly concave (especially specimens from Kedar, Fumato, Sorong) in lateral view. This variability is observed within and among the populations. Also, number of the subdistal flattened setae of the paramere varies thought it is not possible to estimate that quantitatively, since they are numerous and densely attached. The specimens from western populations have less numerous subdistal flattened setae then specimens from Manokwari.</paragraph>
