Description

Genus Albarrania Bolotov, Spitsyn & Kondakov gen. nov.

Type species: Barsine podbolotskayae Spitsyn & Bolotov, 2018

Etymology. This genus is named in honor of Mr. Mikel Albarran Valle, an enthusiastic amateur naturalist, who lives on Flores Island.

Diagnosis. The primary autapomorphic features of this novel genus are in the male genitalia structure: a dorsally directed, robust, spine-like central costal process of the valve and a bundle of dorsally directed, long setae proximal to it (vs lack of such features in Barsine).

Distribution. West Flores.
