 Diagnosis and remarks. Stand-Pérez et al. (2019) pointed out the close morphological similarity between H. bariai and three other species: H. mitratum, H. flavidorsum, and H. bickorum. However, it can be differentiated from these and other Group B species by the following set of characters: BP the longest cercus portion (Fig. 14d), bearing a developed convexity (Fig. 14e); ridge above ML straight, long, partially covering ML in dorsal and dorsolateral views (Figs. 14f–g); MP-AP junction marked, being rounded or angled (Figs. 14d –g); ML apex acute (Fig. 14d).
