Treatment

The iuloideum View in CoL group

Diagnosis

Species of Eviulisoma in which sternum 6 is deeply excavated with unlobed margins, the gonopod acropodite has a separate basal ʻfemoriteʼ part, there is no intermediate acropodital process and the solenophore is a large, unrolled sheet without apical lobes.

Included species:

E. iuloideum ( Verhoeff, 1941) View in CoL

E. articulatum View in CoL sp. nov.

This group corresponds to the genus Himatiopus Verhoeff, 1941 . The description of E. iuloideum by Verhoeff (1941) is quite good, and the similarity with E. articulatum sp. nov. is obvious. An examination of the type material of Himatiopus iuloideus confirmed the similarity but also confirmed that the two species are indeed different.

E. lanceolatum Attems, 1953 (Congo) View in CoL also seems to have an articulated acropodite, but the solenophore is quite different ( Jeekel 2003); hence, E. laceolatum is not regarded as a member of the iuloideum View in CoL group.
