Serenaspis rhaphidophorae (Williams & Watson)

Chionaspis rhaphidophorae Williams & Watson: Williams & Watson, 1988a View in CoL : 90.

Serenaspis rhaphidophorae (Williams & Watson) is very close to S. minima (Maskell) View in CoL , currently only known from New Zealand, sharing the presence of: (i) duct tubercles as far forward as at least the mesothorax, (ii) spiracular disc-pores associated with both anterior and posterior spiracles. and (iii) median lobes close together, with inner margins more or less parallel along most of their length and lacking a strong yoke linking the lobes together. On this basis, C. rhaphidophorae has been transferred to Serenaspis.
