Gavryushinleg.; ZMUM.    Remarks Having strong vertical bristles on male frons and modified claws on male fore tarsus, the species is close to Chinese species of the genus  SinosciapusYang, 2002( Yang & Zhu 2011). However, the latter was diagnosed by two rather than one pairs of scutellar bristles, by one modified claw on the male fore tarsus rather than both claws modified.    Distribution  Kenya. 3457815303 1999-01-18 1999-01-23 1999-01-18 ZFMK Th.
