Remarks. As with the previous genus, Paragathotanais is a eurybathic and cosmopolitan taxon. Confusion about the number of antennal articles has arisen following the diagnosis of Paragathotanais given in Bird & Holdich (1988) and the comments offered by Larsen (2007). Bird & Holdich defined the antenna of the relevant taxa as being six-articled, rather than five-articled as used by Larsen. This apparent conflict arises because the most basal article (article-1) is small and effectively fused to the cephalothorax. In order to preserve the homogeny of the antennal articles in descriptions and comparisons the Bird & Holdich terminology is used here, even though the detached/separated antenna has the appearance of being five-articled.
