Description
Summary:Holmiella taurus sp. nov. Fig. 6 Type material. Holotype KUMIP 355545. Paratypes KUMIP 355546–355547 and PWNHC 2013.23.21–22. Etymology. The name taurus was chosen because the large genal spines resemble the horns of a bull. Diagnosis. Anterior constriction of cephalic border between intergenal spine and genal spine, where border meets genal spine; strongly incised S3; short ocular lobes (terminate opposite S1); anterior most part of genal spine is anterior of LA; anterior cephalic margin is approximately parallel to a sagittal line; the posterolateral margin of LA is constricted to subparallel anteriorly. Description. Anterior cephalic margin relatively straight, extending to genal spines, parallel to the transverse line, developed as a flattened ledge; anterior cephalic border directly anterior of LA length approximately equal to length L3 and expands greatly abaxially; genal spine where attached subparallel to transverse line and then further abaxially deflected back strongly, directed slightly inward, ... : Published as part of Gapp, I.
