Fig. 11 A-C

Material examined

2 juveniles with 10 and 11 pairs of legs, CAMEROON, Kounden, 05º42’ N, 010º40’ E, Eucalyptus woodland, coll. Lejeune, Jul.-Aug. 1974 ; 3 adults, IVORY COAST, Banco, coll. Remy, 20 Apr. 1950 (MRAC 7833).

Diagnosis

This species is characterised by the presence of many setae on the anterior part of the second tergite (Fig. 11A) and the cerci (Fig. 11B). Additional diagnostic features to distinguish this species from the other one studied here – Ribautiella schoutedeni – are the shape of the head, 1.2 times as long as wide (Fig. 11A), the moderate size of the penultimate tergite, 0.6 times as long as the last one, the straighter posterior margin of the last one (Fig. 11B), and the absence of striae on the terminal area of the cerci (Fig. 11C).
