"The African diplurid genus Allothele, containing species which have been erroneously placed in the American genus Euagrus, is redefined to include those diplurids with fully setae-lined spermathecal trunks, a non-terminal male tibia II mating apophysis with stout toothlike apical and subapical spines, and a male metatarsus II mating apophysis without multiple keels. A cladogram, key, diagnoses, descriptions, illustrations, scanning electron micrographs, locality records, and map are provided for the five known species of Allothele. Euagrus regnardi Benoit is transferred to Allothele. One new species, A. malawi, is described"--P. [1].
