Description
Paraeumigus rungsi (Massa, 2013), comb. n. (Figs. 4B, C)
Type locality: Morocco, Col du Zad.
Material examined. Col du Zad N of Midelt, 33.03526°N, 5.07203°W (2200 m), 31.V.2013 (2♂♂, 1♀).
Remarks. Genitalia of this species show a muticous posterior area between the pseudolophi and the hind margin of the epiphallus, and the aedeagus has two widened apical tips, both characters that allow to separate Paraeumigus from Euryparyphes (La Greca 1993). Thus, this species, presently known only from the type locality, must be transferred from the genus Euryparyphes to Paraeumigus. Paraeumigus rungsi Chopard, 1949, already exists but it has been synonymized with Paracinipe mauritanica; see Descamps (1970). On the basis of the art. 59.2 of the ICZN the name Paraeumigus rungsi (Massa 2013) may be retained.
Measurements (in mm). ♂: body length (from the fastigium to the apex of hind femora): 24.2, 25.0; length of pronotum: 6.4, 6.8; height of pronotum: 5.0; length of hind femora: 10.2, 11.1; height of hind femora: 4.0. ♀: body length: 29.0; length of pronotum: 8.7; height of pronotum: 6.4; length of hind femora: 12.2; height of hind femora: 4.6.
