Amplirhagada mitchelliana Solem, 1981 View in CoL

Amplirhagada mitchelliana Solem, 1981a: 272–280 View in CoL , pl. 13b, figs. 37i, 55c–d, 61c–e, 62a–b, 64a (Mitchell Plateau, Warrender Road).

Material examined. WAM S41462 View Materials (lookout on track between Mitchell Plateau camp and Walsh Pool) ( Fig. 1 View Figure 1 , Pl. 2.19), AMS C144039 (Mitchell Plateau, Mitchell Plateau Road, 43.6 km W of Gibb Road-Kalamburu turnoff).

Remarks. Found in the same area as A. varia , this species differs most significantly from the former by a distinct anatomy of the interior penial wall. The penis anatomy of the present sample corresponds with that shown by Solem (1981a). This species is represented in the molecular tree shown below. The two samples sequenced herein do not form a monophyletic cluster but are separated by a considerable uncorrected pair-wise genetic distance of 17% and are shown as non-monophyletic with respect to A. varia . This indicates problems with the species recognition and probably the presence of an unidentified species.
