Three examples (two females, one male) are doubtfully 

 referred to this species^ recorded from Natal, but insufficiently 

 diagnosed. The two females present a small difference in the 

 form of the vulva, and are, perhaps, not cospecific. The 

 description of the vulva of valens applies to both examples.
