Diagnosis.
The males resemble those of
H. andalgalaensis
and
H. tremembe
sp. nov.
by the shape of embolus (see
Figs 15C
,
17D‒17E
and
Galiano 1976b
: figs 43, 44), but differ from all the species of the genus by the complexity of the tip of the embolus. Females resemble those of
H. mesopotamica
in having five coils, but differ by having a more sclerotized epigyne (
Fig. 15D
).
