Photographs were taken using a Visionary Digital Passport System with a Canon EOS 40D camera and MP-E 65 lens. Images were automontaged using Helicon Focus 6.2.2. SEM photographs were taken using a Neoscope JEOL desktop SEM and processed using the Fluid Mask 3 software. All specimens were examined using an Olympus SZX10 stereomicroscope. Measurements were made using an ocular micrometer. Width: length ratio measurements were made on the widest and longest parts of the structure. The comparison between the length of the median lobe and the paramere excludes the bulbous basal part of the median lobe. Total body length is measured from the anterior margin of frons to the posterior margin of tergite VIII. Terminology and label data follow the procedure established by Ashe and Chatzimanolis 2003 and used in other Xanthopygina taxonomic works (e.g., Chatzimanolis 2004 , Chatzimanolis 2008 (link), Chatzimanolis 2012 (link), Chatzimanolis 2013 (link), Chatzimanolis 2014a (link), Chatzimanolis and Ashe 2009 ). The type locality of Scaponopselaphusmutator (Sharp) has been corrected as indicated in Asenjo et al. 2013 .
