Description
Summary:Ophion inclinans Johansson sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 53FE412C-94FB-4D9B-A4EF-10EA7145189A Figs 6C, E, 8F, 13C, 16D, 19 C–D, 33 Diagnosis Separated from other Ophion species by the combination of the carinated scutellum, the dorsal undulation of the first tergite, the shape of the head and placement and size of the ocelli. Very similar to Ophion pteridis and O. vardali Johansson sp. nov., but without infuscate areas on the mesosoma, slightly wider head in anterior view and the occipital carina usually centrally rounded or straight. From O. pteridis it is also distinguished by the usually widely interrupted posterior transverse carina of the propodeum with the area posterior to the carina rather smooth. In all studied specimens of O. pteridis the posterior transverse carina is complete and the area delimited by it strongly wrinkled. Also quite similar to Ophion paukkuneni Johansson sp. nov. but with less buccate head and the lateral ocellus touching the compound eye. Perhaps most easily confused with Ophion arenarius Johansson sp. nov., but with the flagellomeres more elongate and the head usually slightly narrower in anterior view. Etymology Inclinans from the dorsal undulation of the first tergite in this species.
