urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 0C547705-3F0C-4F12-A724-90529008E68E

TYPE MATERIAL EXAMINED. HOLOTYPE. ROMANIA: Iara, 01.XI.2017, 46.527°N 23.577°E: 1 male deposited in HNHM.

ETYMOLOGY. This species was found more to the east of the material I’ve found first.

DESCRIPTION. This species differs from K. ariesensis ariesensis sp. nov. only by the shape of the sclerite in the copulatory pieces. There are some other minor differences in the aedeagus like the bending of the tip of the ventral lamina, but larger series should be studied to see the variation in those characteristics.
