PM of the HT: HW: 29.5; DE: 15; PW: 22; PL: 23; EW: 26.5; EL: 23.5; SL: 17.5.
Male: Ventral characters as in S. persubtili s. Aedeagus (fig. 34), apical portion of median lobe triangularly narrowed (figs 35, 36), apex narrowly rounded, expulsion hooks connected medially; parameres with 7-10 apical setae.
Female: Sternite 8 and valvifer as in the compared species. Spermatheca (fig. 61), infundibulum comparatively short and broad.
In all respects very similar to S. persubtilis except in the genitalia.
Comparative notes: This new species may be distinguished from its relatives by the genitalia.
Etymology: Since this species is extremely similar to S. persubtilis I name it " perplicatus " (Lat.= very intricate).
