Diagnosis
The male of K. macrostyla resembles that of K. pentacantha by its robust body and large size when compared to other males of the genus, and by the stout and conical RTA ( Figs 6D, F View Fig , 20C), but can be easily distinguished by their long, free and filiform embolus ( Fig. 6C, E View Fig ).
