Haplopacha sp. [unassigned]

(Fig. 1 L)

Material examined. Female (Fig. 1 L) (BMNH (E)_1377243, NHM London, Tams (1955/794) dry genitalia dissections mounted on slide: Lasiocampidae #1570 (Fig. 7 E)), N. Rhodesia, Fort Jameson, J.M. Phipps [leg.].

The exterior appearance of this specimen is not very different from both H. riftensis and H. tangani . The female genitalia however are markedly different in the heavy sclerotization of abdominal segments VII and VIII as well as by distinct annulations of the postvaginal plate (Fig. 7 E). Because there are no male specimens that can be associated with this female and in the genitalia preparation both the ductus and corpus bursae are lacking, we do not feel there is enough information to erect a new species on this specimen.
