Th e species described as Paltophorus yapoensis from Yapo, Ivory Coast (Schubart 1955) was included with reservations in Benoitesmus by Demange & Mauriès (1975). Although there is a superfi cial similarity with confi rmed members of Anisodesmus in the presence of a basal prefemoral projection (b) on the telopodite, the proportions of the telopodite are singular in that the setose (prefemoral) region is more than half the telopodite length (against one fourth to one-third). [...] Proposal of a new generic name to accommodate yapoensis should be deferred into a better informed future.
