Luciola
‘
species C’
Ballantyne and McLean (1970:266)
described certain groups of specimens which they were unable to assign reliably to a species as Species A–E. Species A is included in
M. antennata
here; Species B is described as a new species
Tri. apicula
sp. nov.
;
Species D could be a male of
Luciola melancholica
and is considered below; and Species E is assigned to
M. tarsalis
. Species C represented by specimens with trisinuate V7, entire LOs in V7, and orange pronota, remains unassigned.
