All details of collections were provided in the paper but measurements of specimens collected and identified were not published. Measurements of specimens collected during this study are provided in table 29. The biology of this species remains totally unknown. <b>Specimens examined</b>: 26 &amp;female;&amp;female; + 4 &amp;male;&amp;male; + 16 im. in total, 15 &amp;female;&amp;female; + 4 &amp;male;&amp;male; measured.
