Aphilodon angustatus

(Fig. 18)

Diagnosis. A species of Aphilodon with: around 53 – 59 leg-bearing segments; known body length in adults 11 – 19 mm; cephalic plate length / width ratio 1.1 – 1.2; antenna ca. 2 times as long as cephalic plate; pectinate lamella of mandible with straight denticles; coxosternite of second maxillae not distinctly shorter in middle part; forcipular pretergite exposed; telopodite of second maxillae with article 3 shorter than article 2 and with 2 subapical setae and a short sensillum between; forcipule with lateral margin posteriorly straight; tarsungulum ca. 0.8 – 0.9 times as long as trochanteroprefemur + femur; forcipule with 3 + 1 denticles; distal denticle of trochanteroprefemur, denticle of femur and denticle of tibia relatively large and denticle of tarsungulum relatively small; distal denticle of trochanteroprefemur and denticle of femur separate; all pleurites conspicuous; each coxopleuron with 6 – 8 coxal pores in adults; ultimate presternite entire or apparently divided in middle part; metasternite of ultimate leg-bearing segment length / width ratio ca. 0.7; ultimate legs ca. 1.7 – 1.8 times as long as penultimate legs, with tarsus 1 1.1 – 1.2 times as long as tibia. A. angustatus differs from all other species of Aphilodon by having: around 53 – 59 leg-bearing segments; body length less than 25 mm; distal denticle of trochanteroprefemur, denticle of femur and denticle of tibia relatively large and denticle of tarsungulum being relatively small (Fig. 18 C); less than 10 coxal pores on each coxopleuron in adults. Recorded specimens:> 25, including 17 ♀ and 5 ♂, from 10 localities.
