The Thyropygus bifurcus View in CoL subgroup

A subgroup of the T. allevatus group, characterized by 1. An additional projection on the anterior coxal fold 2. A doubled femoral spine (exception: T. casjeekeli n. sp., and quadricuspis n. sp., which have a single femoral spine)

3. No spatulate lobe on the telopodite

4. A longitudinal rounded crest near tip of palette

The T. bifurcus View in CoL subgroup includes T. bifurcus ( Demange, 1986) View in CoL , T. enghoffi ( Demange, 1989) View in CoL , and 4 new species; T. casjeekeli View in CoL n. sp., T. demangei View in CoL n. sp., T. quadricuspis View in CoL n. sp., and T. richardhoffmani View in CoL n. sp. The species within this subgroup not only share the diagnostic characters listed above but also many other characters.
