Eudorylas chvalai Kozanek, 1988

Diagnosis

This species can be recognised by asymmetrical surstyli, left surstylus slightly triangular-shaped, right surstylus quadratic-shaped at the base with long inner finger-like projection and a short outer one in dorsal view; gonopods unequal, right larger than left one in ventral view; phallic guide straight, but at dorsal margin, concave in apical two thirds in lateral view (for illustration, see Kehlmaier 2005a: Figure 69a, k).

Distribution

Greece, Iran (Fig. 1 View Figure 1 ), Turkmenia ( Kehlmaier 2005a, Motamedinia et al. 2017, Skevington 2020).

Notes

Eudorylas chvalai is not very similar genetically to any other Eudorylas species. Using the BOLD DNA identification engine ( The Barcode of Life Data System 2020), the most similar recorded DNA barcode, a specimen from Pakistan on BOLD, is only 91.5% similar. Eudorylas blascoi is 89.97-90.13% similar.
