Taxon discussion The principal basis for putting Z. spatulosus inside the Zelus luriduroup will be the expanded paramere (Fig. ). Nonetheless, this species shows quite a few characters which depart substantially in the remaining species as described in the following.

portion and expanded apical element, plus the basal plate arms are fused. These characters are so distinct that Stibogluconate (sodium) they’re possibly either autapomorphic or homoplasious.

The main basis for placing Z. spatulosus inside the Zelus luriduroup could be the expanded paramere (Fig. ). On the other hand, this species shows various characters which depart drastically from the remaining species as described within the following. The medial approach is slender and laterally compressed, the struts are not evidently visible, the dorsal phallothecal sclerite is distinctly shaped, having a rrow basal portion and expanded apical element, plus the basal plate arms are fused. These characters are so distinct that they’re possibly either autapomorphic or homoplasious. As no characters are identified to unite Z. spatulosus with species of other specieroup, its placement within the Zelus luridus specieroup appears to become the very best decision to take.Zelus sphegeus Fabricius,Nomenclature Zelus sphegeus Fabricius,, p., orig. descr.; St,, p., cat.; Lethierry and Severin,, p., cat.; Haviland,, p.,, list and note; Wygodzinsky, a, p., checklist; Maldodo,, p., cat.
