OK, now I got the paper. Thank you, Francesco!
Here's a picture for the tooth process.
It's not so evident as the one in fig 24 of Komiya and Drumont (2007). I guess it might be individual variation or sex differences, the fig 24 in the paper is a female, the one I posted is a male. Huh...

Ok, I send you.
The toothed process should be in this point:

BTW, is the red dot on the attached picture the place that I should check for your words "the apical margin of the prosternum has the toothed process". I'll try to have my friend to clean the specimen and repost it later.

I have one I thought it is S. lividipennis which was collected from Guizhou China, but now I don't know.
I think yes but I do not understand if the apical margin of the prosternum has the toothed process.
Have you got the monographs to this genus? If not, I can send it to you. |

Thank you Francesco, this is an oldie, indeed, and still unidentified... until now. |

Coming back to this old topic, the former picture shows a small but evident tooth at the apical margin of the prosternum.
Thus, it is a female of Spinimegopis lividipennis (Lameere, 1920). |

Or this? |

I think you have to see the prosternal process. - This helps? |
| Francesco |
Posted - 12/01/2012 : 21:25:29
Yes: it should observe if the prosternum has a posterior conspicuous tubercle or it is smooth. |

Hi all, thank you for coming back with this topic.
Francesco, what do you need to see from the ventral side? Any particular detail?

You are right: I have identified this species before reading the revision by Drumont & Komiya.
Maybe S. kachina is a better ID, but I have to examine the ventral side |

the colour is much darker, the specimen you showed is very light colour. |

It's not Spinimegopis tibialis
the size 35mm? is very short.
Spinimegopis tibialis is much longer. Here's a photo of my specimen collected in S.E.Tibet, a female.

Spinimegopis tibialis (White, 1853), described from North India but also known from Tibet and Nepal.
A mountain species likely widespread in Myanmar too. |
