Description
" Parajulus " rasilis (Karsch, 1881)
Julus rasilis Karsch, 1881:17 –18. Hoffman, 1999:170. Bueno-Villegas et al., 2004:589. Paraiulus rasilis: Pocock, 1907:58. Loomis, 1968a:75.
Type specimens. 1 ɗ and ca. 19 juvenile syntypes (ZMB), all highly fragmented, taken by "Berckenbusch" on an unknown date at Puebla, Mexico, presumably the city of Puebla and not the state (Hoffman 1999). According to Moritz & Fischer (1975:235), there are 3ɗ and 7Ψ syntypes, but I only received one male, and the remaining individuals (I counted 19 heads) appear to be immatures; the other males must be lost as are the gonopods of the existing male. Pleurotergites 3–38 of this male are on insect pins, but the anterior and caudal ends are missing; the gonopodal aperture is clearly visible, but the gonopods have been removed and were not in the vial.
Remarks. As the fourth oldest specific name in the tribe, rasilis should be assigned to a reasonably topotypical male, but I have not seen one in a preserved collection.
