Etymology The species name homaroides is derived from the genus name of the European Lobster (Homarus gammarus Linnaeus) and refers to the remarkably similar shape of copulatory sclerite in the endophallus of this species. The specific epithet is an adjective with immutable ending. Material examined Holotype REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA • ♂; “ S. Afr. [REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA – Northern Cape], Namaquald [Namaqualand].
