Euoplos
(after Rix et al. 2017): Species of Euoplos can be distinguished from all other Arbanitinae by the combined presence of a small, rectangular eye group, the presence of a uniquely broad carapace profile in dorsal view and the presence (usually) of ventrally incrassate anterior leg tarsi on males. Males, females and juveniles of this genus can also be identified (on the basis of 17 molecular exemplar specimens) by the unique deletion of a single amino acid residue (3 bp) at positions 556–558 of mitochondrial CYB, and by the following 23 nuclear nucleotide substitutions: MRPL45 A (114), A(192), T(235), A(276), C(295), G(307), G(325), T(450), C(561), G(681), A(687);RPF2G(91), A(273), A(471), T(540),A (588), A(646);XPNPEP3T(473), C(518);HAT1G(302), C(350), G(369); H3 G(261).
