Physetoparia violantennae (Mauriès & Heymer, 1996), Ruwenzori Mts, Uganda
(Mauriès and Heymer 1996). Originally described as Sphaeroparia (Sphaeroparia)
violantennae Mauriès & Heymer, 1996, it actually belongs to Physetoparia as re-
defined by Golovatch et al. (2018): both gonopodal coxae and gonocoel medi-
um-sized; telopodite strongly exposed, but less complex, with a large apicolateral
lobe, one strong branch and a strong spiniform solenomere. This results in the
following formal transfer: Physetoparia violantennae (Mauriès & Heymer, 1996),
comb. nov. ex Sphaeroparia.
