Camacinia othello Tillyard 1908

Description

Camacinia othello Tillyard, 1908

(Fig. 53, C. gigantea)

Larva not yet recognized. Sole species of Camacinia in Australia. It is assumed that the larva of C. othello will be found to be very similar to its closely related congener C. gigantea which should be used as a substitute to allow identification of C. othello in future (Theischinger & Hawking 2006; Theischinger & Endersby 2009; Hawking et al. 2013).
