Archispirostreptus View in CoL cf. A. gigas ( Peters, 1855)

Material studied. TANZANIA • 1 ♁; Lindi Region, Rondo Plateau; 1987 ; J. Kielland leg.; VMNH112343 View Materials .

Remarks. The gonopods of this specimen differ in the shape of the apical metaplical process (ap) to a degree that I hesitate to identify it as A. gigas . In all other characters, it is similar to a perfectly normal A. gigas found in the same sample.
