Georgina's Pilbara Antichiropus Antichiropus georginae Car, 2019
Fauna Portal species: 11175
Diagnosis
(after Car et al. 2019) The gonopod of male A. georginae is very similar in appearance to that of A. uvulus: that of A. georginae has, however, a small pointed process at the base of the main femoral process (dorsal view) lacking in A. uvulus. The main femoral process is nearly half the length of the solenomere on the A. georginae gonopod but only 1/3 of solenomere length in A. uvulus.
