Poecilochroa ilkerakkusi Coşar, Danişman & Marusik, 2024: 120, figs 5C–F, 7A–E, 8A–D (holotype ♂: TURKEY: Kahramanmaraş Province: Andirin Dist.: Emirler Vill.: Kanliböget promenade [37°37’03.3’’N, 36°26’46.5’’E; 951 m a.s.l.], 29.VI.2020, leg. Danişman & I. Coşar, KUAM (no registration number specified)—not examined.
Description. Male. For description of the male, see Coşar et al. (2024).
Female. Unknown.
Justification of transfer. Although we could not examine the holotype of P. ilkerakkusi, the illustrations of the palp of this species are diagnostic, and present all typical features of the male Trichothyse species: distomedially originating broad conductor with prolateral fold, apically originating claw-like embolus with broad embolic base, medially contiguous sperm duct with single loop, and robust RTA with apical bifurcation (cf. Coşar et al. 2024: figs 5C–F, 8A–D and Figs 1–8, 54–55, 109–112, 116–117). Based on the similarity in genitalic structure and somatic morphology of this species to Trichothyse, we propose the transfer of P. ilkerakkusi .
Distribution. Known only from the type locality in Turkey in western Asia (Fig. 121).
