Uromenus agarenus ( Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1882)

SPAIN: Algeciras, Facinas west of Algeciras N 36.13, W 005.70, 12 viii 1984, leg. Heller. As in U. rugosicollis , male song and stridulatory organs have already been described (see Tab. 1 ). Placement and orientation of the female stridulatory file ( Fig. 9C ) is similar to U. elegans , but the intervals between the teeth are distinctly larger (ca. 44 µm; see also Fig. 13 ).
