Description
Orphnebius (Deroleptus) laticeps CAMERON, 1925
(Figs 66, 103, 112, 359–361)
Material examined: Indonesia: 1♀, Sumatra, Gn Merapi, 5 km E Kotobaru, 1600 m, 18.–25.V.2001, leg. Bolm (NHMB).
Comment: The above female is in agreement with the original description of O. laticeps, which is based on an unspecified number of syntypes from “ Sumatra; Si Rambé” (Cameron 1925). In particular, CAMERON (1925) states that the male tergite VII has a “tubercle just in front of the middle of the posterior border”, a character shared by the examined female. In Deroleptus species, the abdominal tergites VII and VIII are generally not subject to a sexual dimorphism, so that it can be assumed that both males and females possess such a posterior tubercle on tergite VII. The external and sexual characters of the above female are illustrated in Figs 66, 103, 112, 359–361.
