Xanthocanace hamifer Munari, 2008 View in CoL
(figs. 4‒5)
Xanthocanace hamifer Munari, 2008b: 40 [ United Arab Emirates. Qurrayah; HT ♂, NMWC].
Distribution. Afrotropical: United Arab Emirates.
Remarks. A very distinctive species, especially in the structure of the male terminalia. Externally, it is strongly similar to X. zeylanica Delfinado, 1975 , in particular for the thinly microtomentose, subshiny mesonotum. However, it consistently differs from Delfinado’s species mainly by the yellowish face, the proximal segments of the arista noticeably elongated and thickened, sausage-shaped, reddish brown (distal segment very thin and pale, hairlike), and for having a very peculiar surstylus, which shows a long, subapical, hooked process in both lateral and posterior views (figs. 4‒5).
