Thysanarthria wadicola Fikáček & Liu, 2019 View in CoL

Published records. HEBAUER (1997, 2001, as T. sulcata (Chiesa, 1967)) ; FIKÁČEK & LIU (2019).

Material examined. Loc. 8: 3 ♀♀ (paratypes, CCHB, IBEB), 1 spec. (paratype, SEMC,corresponding to voucher SLE0127 in SHORT & FIKÁČEK 2013); Loc. 9: 1 ♀ (paratype, IBEB).

Notes. The species was recorded from Oman by HEBAUER (1997, 2001) as T. sulcata , and from the UAE and Iran by FIKÁČEK et al. (2010) with some doubts on its identity. A recent revision of the genus has shown that T. sulcata is a synonym of T. championi (Knisch, 1924) , widespread in central and south Asia ( FIKÁČEK & LIU 2019). The Arabian material corresponds to a species newly described by FIKÁČEK & LIU (2019), T. wadicola . Specimens were found in the gravelly shores of wadis, in a microhabitat similar to that of some species of the related genus Chaetharthria.
