Not Iphinoe crassipes haifae Bâcescu, 1961; p. 501 fig. 3D, 4.
Not Iphinoe crassipes Day, 1978; p. 224–230, fig. 26–27.
Remarks. The status of I. crassipes was clarified by Corbera (1994) who presented a new description of the adult male. Previous descriptions of I. crassipes (Hansen 1895) and I. crassipes haifae (Băcescu 1961) had been based on preadult males. The species differs from other Mediterranean congenerics in that it has two terminal aesthetascs on antenna 1. Moreover, the dorsal carina is unarmed in males (Corbera 1994) and the CL/CD ratio is about 1.5. Morphological data on female specimens are not available. A truncated pseudorostrum and a pair of lateral carinae are further diagnostic characters of I. crassipes.
Distribution and ecology. Iphinoe crassipes (sensu lato) is present in the western Mediterranean Sea (Corbera 1994) and in the Levantine sea (Bâcescu 1969). Its distribution is typical of a circumtropical species Corbera (1994), although Băcescu (1961) explained the record of I. crassipes haifae from the Israel coast as a possible invasion through the Suez Canal.At first Corbera (1994) casted doubt on this hypothesis, based on the occurrence of this species off the northeastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula (Catalogna coast). However, after a finding in a new western Mediterranean locality (along Valenciana coast) Corbera (2015) suggested that this disjunct distribution could be a shipping introduction way.
The species has never been reported from the Italian coast, nor was it found in our samples.
Corbera (1994) reviewed the ecology of Iphinoe crassipes (sensu lato), reporting that the species lives in warm temperate waters (Hansen 1895, Jones 1956, Le Loeuff & Intes 1972, Day 1978) such as the western coast of Africa, and avoids the cold upwelling zones (South Africa and Mauritania coasts). Corbera (1994) found this species in sandy bottoms at a depth of 15 m.

Iphinoe elisae

description: Iphinoe elisae Bâcescu, 1950
Material examined. 2 ovigerous females, st. 2; 1 ovigerous female, 1 adult male st. 26; 1 ovigerous female without uropod, st. 39.
Remarks. Iphinoe elisae was described by Bâcescu (1950). It is characterized by four perianal setae, like I. serrata. However, I. elisae only has one aesthetasc on antenna 1, while I. serrata has two. These traits are common for both male and female specimens.
The adult females observed from station 2 have four setae in the first uropod segment as do the males, rather than three as described by Ledoyer (1965). The integument is covered by scarce bristles.
Distribution and Ecology. Iphinoe elisae is a common species in the Black Sea (Băcescu 1950; Revkov et al. 2002; Kirkim et al. 2006; Todorova & Konsulova 2006; Dumitrache et al. 2013), but has also been reported from the western Mediterranean (Sánchez Moyano et al. 2012).
Up to now, I. elisae had not been reported from Italian waters. Here we report its presence in area 9 (Table 3).
Iphinoe elisae was first discovered in muddy sediment at a depth of 30–80 m in the Black Sea (Băcescu 1950). Kirkim et al. (2006) recorded I. elisae on the Anatolian coast in both mud and fine sand sediment; Sánchez Moyano et al. (2012) in the interior of Algeciras Bay (Spain), and in Caulerpa prolifera meadows (2–5 m deep).
A specimen of Iphinoe elisae was found in our samples on biocenosis with 60% of sand, at a depth ranging between 2 and 39.5 m (Table 1).

Iphinoe inermis

description: Iphinoe inermis Sars, 1878
Iphinoe inermis Sars, 1879: 508–510, pl. 17–18; Carus, 1885: 458 (descr. male, female el latin); Stebbing 1913: 4 (redescr. male, female); Fage 1933: 166–169; Fage 1940: 3–4, fig. 1 I; Fage 1944: 113–114, fig. 1; Fage 1951: 46–47, fig. 39; Picard 1965: 174, 273; Gamulin-Brida 1974; 28, 75. Nodot et al., 1984: 152–153.
Material examined. 3 adult males, st. 2; 5 adult males, 2 preparatory males, st. 10.
Remarks. The Iphinoe inermis group is named after Iphinoe inermis (sensu Ledoyer 1965). This species group is characterized by having a shorter first antennae than body length in males. This trait is shared with I. meiotica, although I. inermis has pinnate setae on the uropod peduncle. Moreover, females are characterized by having a CL/ CD ratio of ≥2, a longer pereopod basis than the other articles put together, and a seta formula of 8; 4+11.
The adult females from station 10 have 7 setae and a terminal one on article 2 of the uropod, which were not reported by Ledoyer (1965). The pereopod basis shape is arcuate because it follows the sinuous anterolateral edge of the carapace.
Distribution and ecology. South-western Mediterranean (Sars 1879; Dauvin et al. 2017); north-western Mediterranean (Fage 1933,1951; Ledoyer, 1968; Desbruyères et al. 1972 –1973; Corbera & Cardell 1995); Atlantic Ocean, Canary Islands-Gran Canaria (Corbera et al. 2002); Adriatic Sea (Gamulin Brida 1974). Up to now the presence of I. inermis had been restricted to sectors 8 and 9 of the Bianchi (2004) classification (Marusso 2006), whereas we confirm the presence for area 9 (Table 3).
Iphinoe inermis was found on fine sand by Sars (1879) and Ledoyer (1965), in Cymodocea meadows and fine sand by Corbera et al. (2002), and on infralittoral fine sand by Gamulin Brida (1974). The specimens found in this study confirm a preference for sandy biocenosis.

Iphinoe maculata

description: Iphinoe maculata Ledoyer, 1965
Iphinoe maculata Ledoyer 1965: 255, pl. 1 fig. 2A, 2B, pl. 5 fig. 2, pl. 9 fig. 2, pl. 13 fig. 2, pl. 18 fig. 3–4; Ledoyer 1968: 175; Corbera & Cardell 1995; Corbera & Garcia-Rubies 1998: Figs. 4C; 5B.
Remarks. Iphinoe maculata is similar to I. trispinosa. These two species share an absence of plumose setae on the pereopod 2 carpus and the fact that the first antennae is as long as the body. Iphinoe maculata differs from I. trispinosa in the proportions of the carapace and the form of the sternal process, which is quadridentate (Corbera & Garcia-Rubies 1998). Females of I. maculata differ from I. trispinosa in the uropodal seta formula (7–9;4–7+12 vs. 10;5+15, respectively). Iphinoe maculata differs from Iphinoe douniae for the presence of setae (≥10) of the uropod peduncle and for the absence of plumose setae on pereopod 2.
Distribution and ecology. Iphinoe maculata was found in the western Mediterranean Sea: Gulf of Lyons (Ledoyer 1965, 1968; Macquart-Moulin 1991), Barcelona coast (Corbera & Cardell 1995), Blanes (Corbera 1995) and Algeciras Bay, and Alboran Sea (Sánchez Moyano et al. 2001).
The species has never been reported from the Italian coast, nor was it found in our samples.
This species exhibits a preference for organic fine sands and coarse sands influenced by bottom currents (Ledoyer 1965) although in the Medes Islands it was found on littoral detritic bottoms (5.4 m deep) and on Posidonia oceanica beds (11 m deep) (Corbera & Garcia-Rubies 1998).

Material examined. 1 ovigerous female, st. 17; 1 ovigerous female, 1 subadult female, st. 25.
Remarks. Iphinoe serrata differs from other Mediterranean species for the presence of 4 perianal setae on pleonite 6. The other species that shares this characteristic is I. elisae; however, I. serrata differs from I. elisae for the presence of 2 aesthetascs on antenna 1 (versus only 1 in I. elisae). Its sternal process is characterized by a bifid tubercle.
Distribution and ecology. Iphinoe serrata is widely distributed in the Mediterranean Sea: in the Alboran Sea (Ledoyer 1987; Sánchez Moyano et al. 2001), north-western Mediterranean (Walker 1901; Ledoyer 1968; Klepal & Kastner 1980; Corbera & Cardell 1995; Cartes et al. 2007), Adriatic Sea (Zimmer 1942), Aegean Sea (Katagan 1983), Levantine Sea (Băcescu 1961), and in Abu-Qir Bay (Alexandria, Egypt) (Hamouda & Abdel-Salam 2010). Up to now the known distribution of I. serrata had been confined to areas 1, 2 and 9 of the Bianchi (2004) classification (Marusso 2006). We confirm its presence in sector 9 (Table 3). The bathymetric range of I. serrata varies between 50 and 300 m deep (Corbera 1995). Corbera & Cardell (1995) confirmed that I. serrata is a species from deep environments (60–70 m deep), found on muddy bottoms. Our data show that I. serrata is not only present in deep waters (around 40 m), but also occurs in shallower waters (13 m).

Material examined. 1 adult male, 1 ovigerous female, st. 6; 2 adult males, st. 26; 1 adult male, st. 32; 1 adult male, st. 34; 2 adult males, 1 preparatory male, 10 ovigerous females, 5 subadult females, st 38; 2 ovigerous females, st. 40.
Remarks. Iphinoe tenella is peculiar in that it has six perianal setae on pleonite 6, a trait that is not exhibited by any of the other Mediterranean Iphinoe species, and there is no sternal process in males. It is important to note that the ventral pair of perianal setae are smaller than the median, and the dorsal pair are the biggest. The ventral pair are not easy to observe under a stereoscope. The CL/CD ratio reported by Ledoyer (1968) was 1.84, while the I. tenella specimens that we observed had a larger ratio, reaching an average of 2.34 (2 individuals) at station 40 (Table 3). Iphinoe tenella is a morphologically variable species (Corbera & Garcia-Rubies1998): some adult males from the Black Sea have an unarmed carapace (Băcescu 1951; Ledoyer 1965) while Mediterranean and Atlantic populations exhibit serrated carapaces.
Distribution and ecology. Iphinoe tenella has a wide distribution in the Mediterranean Sea. It was recorded from the Alboran Sea (Sánchez Moyano et al. 2001), North-Western basin (Ledoyer 1968; Corbera & Cardell 1995; Corbera & Garcia-Rubies 1998) and South-Western basin (Sars 1878, 1879); Central basin (Valentin 1982; Graeffe 1902), Levantine Sea (Steuer 1936), and along the Anatolian coast of the Black Sea (Kirkim et al. 2006; Sezgin et al. 2010). Up to now the known distribution of I. tenella had been confined to areas 1, 3 and 5 of the Bianchi (2004) classification (Marusso 2006). Here we extend the distribution to sectors 2, 6, 8 and 9 (Table 3). Iphinoe tenella was predominant in muddy bottoms in several localities (i.e. Cacabelos et al. 2010; Kirkim et al. 2006); and in fine sand Kirkim et al. (2006), or over Posidonia oceanica beds and muddy sand at a depth of 10–30 m (Corbera & Cardell 1995). Our data show that I. tenella occurs on VTC, SVMC, DL, from 5 to 40 m deep.

Halia trispinosa Bate 1856: 458 pl. 14, 15, fig 5.
Venilia gracilis Bate 1856: 460 pl. 15, fig 7.
Cyrianassa gracilis Bate 1856: 187.
Iphinoe gracilis Norman 1868: 272.
Remarks. Iphinoe trispinosa is usually confused with other Mediterranean species because it shares several characteristics with them that are not easy to recognize. In adult males, antenna 2 reaches the end of the pleon.
Distribution and Ecology. Iphinoe trispinosa was recorded by Graeffe (1902) and Fage (1940) in the northwest Mediterranean Sea; however, after the revision of the genus Iphinoe by Ledoyer (1965), it has never been recorded again, except for the record by Ayari & Afli (2003) from the Gulf of Tunis. We agree with Corbera & Garcia-Rubies (1998) and consider all the Mediterranean records of I. trispinosa as misidentifications of I. douniae.
......continued on the next page
According to Marusso (2006), Iphinoe trispinosa occurs in areas 1, 2, 3 and 9 of the Bianchi (2004) classification (Table 3). However, we failed to record the species in our samples. In light of the above, we believe that this species is present neither in Italian waters, nor anywhere else in the Mediterranean Sea. It is difficult to delineate the habitat type of I. trispinosa because it has often been misidentified with other species (Corbera & Garcia-Rubies 1998).
In the native range (Northeast Atlantic), I. trispinosa is usually found on fine sand in the infralittoral zone (Cornet et al. 1983; Reis et al. 1982). It is also frequent in infralittoral gravelly sand and coarse sediment (Connor et al. 2004).

(Figs 1-3, 7, 8, 24)
Types. Holotype worker from 9km ENE Mt. Tozer, 12°43'S 143°17'E, Queensland, 5-10 July 1986, J.C.Cardale, ex. pan traps (ANIC, ANIC 32-023688). Two paratype workers, same data as holotype (ANIC, ANIC 32-023646).
Diagnosis. Head capsule entirely smooth and essentially uniformly coloured; scape relatively short (SI <91); sculpturing on pronotum extending posteriorly onto the main pronotal body; body larger (HW> 0.62mm). This species is morphologically similar to A. turneri but can be separated from it by its larger size and more extensive sculpturing on the pronotum.
Worker Description. Mandible narrow and subtriangular, with a large apical tooth and a smaller subapical tooth followed by 4-6 small teeth and a larger basal tooth; anterior clypeal border varying from weakly convex to weakly concave, located at or slightly posterior to anterior margin of frontal lobes in full face view; parafrontal ridges absent; subpetiolar process a large rectangular to elongate-rectangular projection; head entirely smooth, pronotum with weak, closely spaced punctures dorsally and anteriorly, smooth posterolaterally, remainder of mesosoma finely punctate with weak longitudinal rugae on lateral surfaces; body yellow-red to light red-brown.
Measurements. Worker (n = 13) - CI 88-97; HL 0.66-0.73; MTL 0.59-0.67; HW 0.62-0.66; ML 1.07- 1.17; SI 81-91; SL 0.53-0.58.
Additional material examined. Australia: Northern Territory: Douglas Daly, CRC Clay Site A5 (Salvarani,A.) (TERC); Douglas Daly, CRC Clay Site A8 (Salvarani,A.) (TERC); PWCNT, Tiwi Island Fauna Survey FR (Woinarski,J.) (TERC); Solar Village Survey, Burnt Slope 3 (Andersen,A.N.) (TERC). Queensland: 9km ENE Mt. Tozer (Cardale,J.C.) (ANIC). Western Australia: Kimberley, CALM Site 4/3 (Weir,T.) (TERC).
Comments. This rare species is known from a limited number of collections in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, northern Northern Territory and on Cape York Peninsula, Queensland. All specimens were collection from pitfall traps or pan traps. It is very similar to A. turneri but the differences outlined above under Diagnosis seem to hold for all currently available specimens and it is here recognised as a separate taxon.

Types. Holotype worker from Telegraph Line Crossing, Jardine River, Cape York, Queensland, 15-17 June 1969, G.Monteith (ANIC, ANIC 32-023689). 29 paratype workers, same data as holotype (ANIC, MCZC, QMBA, ANIC 32-015742, ANIC 32-015768, ANIC 32-015774, ANIC 32-029319, ANIC 32-032139).
Diagnosis. "Eye spots" present on posterolateral corners of head; subpetiolar process generally absent but sometimes present as a slight carina. This is the only known Australian species of the genus with "eye spots" (pale pigmentation on the dorsolateral region of the head capsule).
Worker Description. Mandible subtriangular, with a large apical tooth, a smaller subapical tooth and a series of 4-ca.10 ill-defined crenulations; anterior clypeal border convex, extending anterior of anterior surfaces of frontal lobes in full face view; parafrontal ridges absent (although a sharp angle is present immediately posterior of the lateral clypeal margin); subpetiolar process absent or at most a thin carina; head entirely smooth, posterior pronotum smooth, anterior pronotum and entire mesonotum with weak, fine puncations, mesopleuron with longitudinal rugae, propodeum similar to mesonotum but sculpturing less well developed, especially anteriorly; body yellow-red with " Typhlatta " spots (pale yellow patches) on posterolateral corners of head.
Measurements. Worker (n = 9) - CI 83-88; HL 0.85-0.95; HW 0.74-0.83; MTL 0.78-0.97; ML 1.39- 1.59; SI 95-103; SL 0.71-0.83.
Additional material examined. Australia: Queensland: 9km ENE Mt. Tozer (Cardale,J.C.) (ANIC).
Comments. This is one of the rarest species of Australian Aenictus, being known from only two collections on northern Cape York Peninsula. Its closest relatives, species formerly placed in the subgenus Typhlatta, are found from India east to the Philippines and south to Papua New Guinea. This species is similar to the PNG species A. huonicus but differs in having more extensive sculpturing on the mesosoma and petiole.

description: Objective: The objective of this scoping review is to understand the extent and type of evidence in relation to how to characterise and measure a successful disclosure of a diagnosis of dementia from the perspective of someone living with dementia and their carer.  

Introduction: Previous research has been conducted into how to disclose a diagnosis of dementia and the affect that disclosing a diagnosis of dementia has on the person living with dementia, their carer and the clinician. Yet we do not know the extent to which the evidence characterises a good diagnosis of dementia, or how best to measure it from the perspective of the person living with dementia and their carer.

Inclusion criteria:  Three types of evidence will be included: 1) qualitative evidence describing people with dementia and their carer’ experiences of diagnosis disclosures, both good and bad, 2) quantitative data from questionnaires measuring people with dementia and carer’ experiences, and the questionnaire items chosen for this measurement, and 3) guidelines and frameworks around dementia disclosure which have already been developed.

Methods:

Six databases will be used, this includes MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, Scopus, PsychInfo and Google Scholar. Unpublished studies and gray literature will be searched using ProQuest, TRIP, Mednar and Open Access Theses and Dissertations as well as Google. Only English language papers will be included with the search conducted from 2009. This review will follow the methodological framework set out by Arksey and O'Malley. Two independent reviewers will review all papers, firstly based on abstract and title and then by full text, before selecting the appropriate studies based on the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Data will be extracted from the included studies by two researchers using a pre-established data extraction instrument. The qualitative results will be analysed using meta-synthesis using NVivo, all other data will be analysed using narrative synthesis using Excel. All results will be presented in a tabular form.

Aenictus hilli

description: Aenictus hilli Clark
Aenictus hilli Clark, 1928: 38.
Types. Holotype male from Malanda, Queensland (ANIC, examined).
Comments. A. hilli was described by Clark (1928) from a single male collected at Malanda, Queensland. There are numerous males in ANIC which are morphologically similar to the type of A. hilli. Unfortunately none are associated with workers. In addition, the remaining described Australian species are all worker-based and without associated males. This makes it impossible to positively associate A. hilli with any of these other species. Distribution patterns give little clue as to the association either as Aenictus aratus, A. nesiotis, A. prolixus and A. turneri all occur in the general area of the type locality of A. hilli. Thus there is currently insufficient information to associate A. hilli, or any of these other males, with any of the worker-based species. As a result A. hilli is here treated as a valid species and these additional males tentatively associated with it until such time that worker-associated males or fresh material suitable for molecular analysis can be secured.
Material examined (all unassociated males). Australia: Northern Territory: 34 mi. NW of Dorisvale HS (Mendum,M.) (ANIC); 39 km E of Alice Springs (Cardale,J.C.) (ANIC); 4 mi. W of Coolibah H.S.

(Figs 7, 8, 18-20, 29)
Types. Holotype worker from Baroalba Gorge, 12°50'S 132°52'E, 18 Nov. 1972, R.W.Taylor & J.E.Feehan, Acc. N. 72.1076, rainforest, under stone (ANIC, ANIC 32-002810). 18 paratype workers, same data as holotype(ANIC, MCZC, QMBA, ANIC 32-015781).
Diagnosis. Head capsule entirely smooth and essentially uniformly coloured; scape relatively long (SI> 89); subpetiolar process large and rectangular. This species is most similar to A. acerbus and A. turneri but can be separated from these by the longer scapes.
Worker Description. Mandible triangular, with a large apical tooth and a smaller subapical tooth followed by 6-7 (rarely 5) small teeth and a larger basal tooth; anterior clypeal border weakly convex to weakly concave, located at or anterior to anterior margins of frontal lobes in full face view; parafrontal ridges absent; subpetiolar process a large rectangular project, an elongate flange sometimes present on the posterior corner; head entirely smooth, pronotum weakly reticulate on collar, smooth posteriorly and laterally, mesonotum smooth, mesopleuron and propodeum finely punctate with longitudinal rugae laterally; body yellow-red, mesosoma slightly darker.
Measurements. Worker (n = 13) - CI 81-90; HL 0.55-0.62; HW 0.46-0.54; MTL 0.43-0.57; ML 0.84- 0.98; SI 89-96; SL 0.42-0.51.

(ANIC); S3 Mission Beach (Cermak,M.) (ANIC); Torres Strait, Murray Is. (Heatwole,H.) (ANIC); Weipa, MRRP Study Site N26 (Andersen,A.N.) (TERC).
Comments. This common species is found in northern Northern Territory and northern Queensland. It is most similar to A. acerbus and A. turneri but can be separated as outlined above under Diagnosis. It is probable that at least some of the males here associated with A. hilli may actually belong to this species.

Alycaeus (Pincerna) Preston, 1907: 206.
Pincerna —Páll-Gergely 2017: 214; Páll-Gergely 2020: 167.
Type species. Alycaeus (Pincerna) liratula Preston, 1907, by original designation.
Remarks. The genus Cycloryx was treated as a junior synonym of Pincerna (Páll-Gergely 2017, Páll-Gergely et al. 2020), because the ovately conoid shells shape, the regular ribbing on the upper whorls, and the extremely short, often clubbed or pear-shaped sutural tube of the two groups are remarkably similar. However, unpublished molecular phylogenetic analysis revealed that while a Peninsular Malaysian Pincerna species clustered together with Stomacosmethis Bollinger, 1918 species from the same geographic area, the Cycloryx species from Myanmar and Nepal were closely related to Dioryx Benson, 1859 species, indicating that the morphological similarity of Cycloryx and Pincerna species are probably the result of convergence. Therefore, Cycloryx was resurrected by Gittenberger et al. (2022), who used it as a valid genus for Bhutanese species. It is not clear whether the Pincerna species inhabiting China, Laos and Vietnam are more closely related to the Himalayan (Cycloryx) or the Malaysian (Pincerna) group. There is a greater possibility that the Chinese, Lao and northern Vietnamese ‘ Pincerna ’ species are in fact Cycloryx, because of the very close similarity of some Cycloryx species with P. costulosus (see under that species). Nevertheless, until more convincing information becomes available, the species of those countries are classified in Pincerna, following the most recent genus-level revision of the Alycaeidae (Páll-Gergely et al. 2020).
Pincerna (meaning bartender in Latin) is masculine, not feminine, despite the ‘a’ ending.

Pincerna acroptychia

description: Pincerna acroptychia n. sp.
(Fig. 5A–E)
Type material. Holotype: VIETNAM: Ha Giang Province, km 105.5 km on road no. 4c, between Yen Minh and Dong Van (NE of Ha Giang Town), 23°08.996′N, 105°10.332′E (locality code: Vn 11-141), leg. Ch. & J. Hemmen, 21 March 2011 (SMF 370401, Fig. 5A–E).
Diagnosis. A medium-sized Pincerna species with a shell that is slightly higher than wide, R1 and R3 with elevated, sharp, lamella-like ribs (6 on R3), R2 short, with ca. 16 densely arranged, low ribs, R3 with blunt, elongated central swelling.
Description. The single available shell is white, although it is slightly corroded, the original colour may also be white; shell ca. as high as wide; protoconch smooth, consisting of 1.5 whorls; R1 consists of 2.25 whorls, with elevated, sharp, lamella-like ribs, rib density very slightly decreases from beginning of teleoconch towards its end, on the last quarter whorl spaces between ribs abruptly increase; R2 and R3 less than 90 degrees combined, R2 very short, consisting of ca. 16 densely arranged, low ribs (cross sectional view not examined); change between R1 and R2 abrupt due to radical change in rib density; constriction between R2 and R3 deep; R3 with blunt, elongated central swelling and 6 elevated, sharp, lamella-like ribs (similar in density to that at the end of R1); aperture large, rounded; boundary between inner and outer peristomes conspicuous; outer peristome expanded (widest in direction of umbilicus), not reflected; inner peristome slightly protruding; umbilicus open, very narrow, visible only in ventral view, in apertural view covered by reflected outer peristome.
Operculum. Unknown.
Measurements (in mm). D = 4.3, H = 4.4 (holotype).
Differential diagnosis. Pincerna costulosus (Bavay & Dautzenberg, 1912) is similar in overall shell shape, but that species has lower, less sharp ribs, and its R3 is smooth or ornamented by a few, low ribs. Pincerna maolanensis (Luo, Zhang & Zhuo, 2009) has similar rib density and its R3 is also strongly ribbed, but its R2 is much longer than that of the new species. This new species also differs from P. yaanensis by the strongly elevated R3 ribs, and moreover, the R3 swelling of the new species is central, whereas it is shifted towards the aperture in the Chinese species.
