Description
Horniolus nigripes Miyatake
Horniolus nigripes Miyatake, 1976: 33 (holotype male; BPBM).– Poorani 2002: 350.
Distribution. India: Tamil Nadu.
Note. Miyatake (1976) described it based on a single male specimen collected from Valparai (Western Ghats / Nilgiris range) and illustrated the habitus and the male genitalia. It appears to be a very rare species and any representatives could not be found in any recent collections from the same area.
