Manota roslii Hippa 2006

Description

Manota roslii Hippa, 2006

Records. 1 male, Trang Prov., Palian District, Nam Tok Nam Pan Forest Park, over streams & vegetation around waterfalls, No. 35, Nov 17, 2004, leg. L. Papp & M. Földvári.

Remarks. The species was recently described from Selangor, Malaysia (Hippa 2006). In the original description (Hippa 2006), the parastylar lobe was mentioned as absent. In the present Thailand specimen, however, the parastylar lobe is distinct even though it is partly covered by the ventral mesial margin of the gonocoxa. It has a characteristic pattern of 4 strong setae (Fig. 2 B). This has now been observed even in the type specimens, which are mounted with the dorsal side upwards and were not correctly interpreted at the time of description. In the Thailand specimen, the juxtagonostylar megaseta is flattened and apically expanded, which is clearly seen on the right side (Fig. 2 C). In the original description it was mentioned as “apparently non-flattened”.
