Habitus Figs. 2A–B View FIGURE 2 A – E . Length 0.99–1.05 mm. Colour brown appearing paler on lateral margins and underside of pronotum and posterior margin of the elytra; exposed abdominal segments, legs and antennae dusky yellow. Antennomeres 3–11 0.36–0.41 mm long Fig.2C View FIGURE 2 A – E . Mentum and submentum chaetotaxy Fig. 3B View FIGURE 3 A – G . Width across eyes 0.39–0.42 mm. Pronotum 0.67–0.71 mm wide, 0.30–0.33 mm long, wider than elytra at shoulders. Elytra 0.58– 0.60 mm long, 0.70–0.76 mm wide, widest across the humeri and with a setae bearing epipleuron stretching to two thirds the length of the elytron and projecting from the lateral border of the mesoventrum Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 A – E H. Mesoventral collar not extending onto the humeri, mesoventral process reaching posterior margin of collar, posterior margins straight, sloping anteriorly to lateral margins Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 A – E F. Posterior margins of metaventrum straight, sloping anteriorly to lateral margins, metacoxal plates large and rounded, reaching to anterior margins Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 A – E G. Pygidium with a small central tooth (often abraided and apparently absent) and two large lateral teeth in the posterior half, longer setae as present in many species of Acrotrichis absent, anterior border setiferous Fig. 3F View FIGURE 3 A – G .

Male: aedeagus Fig. 2E View FIGURE 2 A – E ; sixth visible ventrite Fig. 3C View FIGURE 3 A – G .

Female: spermatheca with a long narrow duct arising from the same surface of the receptacle as the pump Fig. 2D View FIGURE 2 A – E ; sixth visible ventrite with two posteriorly directed setae Fig. 3G View FIGURE 3 A – G .

Etymology. From the name of the country in which the species was found.

Diagnosis. Only likely to be confused with species of Acrotrichis and Actinopteryx , see above.
