Remarks. The male specimen from Warmarai stream is almost completely sclerotized. This specimen, 356 long and 284 wide, has an almost complete dorsal plate with a laterally obsolete transversal suture line. The venter is divided into two plates as well, with the gonopore fused completely with the posterior ventral plate and the coxal field fused into an anterior plate. Wiles (1997a) found various degrees of sclerotization, but not as complete as in this specimen.
Previously reported from Papua New Guinea, and one record from Papua Province, Indonesia (Smit 2011).
