Parabolocratus setosus

description: Parabolocratus setosus Ahmed, Murtaza & Malik
Remarks. From the original figures (clypellus shape and male genitalia) this species probably does not belong in Parabolocratus but the figures are too poor to place it to genus.
Described from a holotype male and one paratype from: Karachi, grass, 5.xii.1985, Babar (ZMUK); no type specimens could be found.
