Megataxa 7(2): 113–311.

Holotype.—zSM 829/2014 (zCMv 14771), adult female, collected by A. rakotoarison, M. Bletz, D. Edmonds, and F. randrianasolo on 11 November 2014 at Pic d’Ivohibe Special reserve, Camp 3 (22.49710°S, 046.95758°E, 1566 m a.s.l.), Ihorombe region, Madagascar. A 16S barcode sequence of the holotype was obtained in this study and was included in the analysis. Paratypes.—A total of two paratypes: zSM 827/2014 (zCMv 14763) and zSM 828/2014 (zCMv 14768), two adult females, with the same collection data as the holotype. Specimens from ranomafana are not included in the paratype series as they were not examined morphologically and are genetically divergent.
