Female - Unknown. Remarks - This species can be undoubtedly identified based on the shape of the phallic guide and the epandrium (Figs 4B, D). Also the size of ST8 is very dis­tinct being so small compared to the epandrium (Fig. 4B). Etymology - The species is named after the type locality, Amani in East Tanzania. Distribution - Only known from Tanzania. Acknowledgements -1 would like to thank Roy Danielsson (ZML) and Rudolf Meier (ZMUC) for putting material at my disposal. Also I would like to thank the Copenhagen Biodiversity Centre (COBICE) for the opportunity to visit the ZMUC and study their collection. REFERENCES Aczél, M.
