Scaphisoma sp.

Material examined. INDONESIA: NORTH SULAWESI: 1 km S Sawangan, Flusstal bei [river valley near] River Park resort, 01°22 ′ 51 ″ N, 124°56 ′ 56 ″ E, 250 m, 1.–3.ii.2004, A. Weigel leg., 1 ♀ ( NKME) .

Notes. This species is similar to S. carinatum sp. nov., but may be readily distinguished by the metaventrite lacking mesal carina and by the coarse punctation on the mesal area of the abdominal ventrite I. The specimen possibly represents a new species. It is left unnamed in absence of knowledge of male characters.
