The description of this species was based on a female (SAM 13741) and its generic position and taxonomic
validity is doubtful (see Hoffman 1971; Hamer 1998). Until males (and more females) are collected and the
gonopods are compared to congeners, longius remains doubtful. According to Attems (1928), the type material is in the SAM. However, the material is missing from the
collection and is not in other southern African museums.
