Porricondyla clancula Jaschhof, 2013

Morphological identification

Jaschhof & Jaschhof (2013). A specimen of Porricondyla examined here differs from P. clancula in both the CO1 sequence (BIN BOLD:AEO7197) and male terminalia structures, notably the gonostylus, which is slightly more convex outside and pointed apically, and the gonocoxal processes, which are only slightly bent. My reexamination of extra-German specimens revealed this morphotype, labeled here Porricondyla sp. MJDE1, to be present in Sweden also (unpublished data). Search on BOLD’s BIN Database retrieved no further result for BOLD:AEO7197. See further remarks under P. rufescens .
