3.2.2. Amplissimum group

Diagnosis. Aedeagus very wide and short, with elongate median lobe and somewhat truncate (Fig. 27) or incised (Fig. 30) apex; parameres wide, slighty or significantly (Fig. 27) longer than apex of the median lobe.

Species included: O. amplissimum sp. n., O. bilobum sp. n.

Remarks. Regarding the general shape and ground sculpture of the body, species of the Amplissimum group are similar to the Himalayan species of the Oxyacanthae and the Rivulare group, but differs by shapes of the wide aedeagus and apical portion of the median lobe.
