Triplectides View in CoL sp.

Material examined. 2 females, Soldiers Creek, 22–23.xii.2001, A. Wells.

Remarks. These are the only 2 specimens that have been collected on Lord Howe Island and may simply have been itinerants. The genitalia of the 2 females most closely resemble those of T. australicus Banks, 1939 (see Neboiss, 1986b: 234 for illustration of female genitalia), a widespread eastern Australian species, and have a spur formula of 2:2:2.
