Hemisphaeroparia hexatricha (Mauriès & Heymer, 1996), Kivu, the Democratic
Republic of the Congo (Mauriès and Heymer 1996). Originally described as
Sphaeroparia (Physetoparia) hexatricha Mauriès & Heymer, 1996, it seems best to
assign to Hemisphaeroparia because of enlarged and globose gonocoxae, coupled
with each telopodite being strongly sunken inside a deep gonocoel and leaving
one rather long branch clearly exposed (Golovatch et al. 2018). This results in
the following formal transfer: Hemisphaeroparia hexatricha (Mauriès & Heymer,
1996), comb. nov. ex Sphaeroparia.
