Description

Genus

BamazomusHarvey, 1992

Type species.

Bamazomus bamaga Harvey, 1992 from Queensland.

Comment.

Bamazomus resembles Apozomus Harvey, 1992 and can be distinguished from it by: 1) spermathecae with numerous lobes vs only with two pairs of lobes; 2) flagellum with posterior process in male vs without posterior process. Currently 11 species of the genus are known to occur from Madagascar to Australia. There is only one anthropochorous species, B. siamensis (Hansen, 1905), which is known outside of natural range. It is known from Thailand (type locality), Hawaii, Ryukyu Islands, and Hong Kong. Until now only this species was known from the continental part of Asia, namely from Bangkok (WSC 2024).
