Fore basitarsus at base with 4 black ventral setae. 2nd tarsomere of fore tarsus curved ventrally, on apex ventrally thickened. 4th tarsomere of fore tarsus ventrally on apex thickened, on apex with black thick curved ventral seta and yellow transparent flat seta. 5th tarsomere of fore tarsus with group of long setae from dorsal and apical sides, their length is greater than diameter of joint. 5th tarsomere with dorsal process. black claws and white pulvillus. Relative length of fore tibia and 5 tarsomeres (from 1st to 5th) is 4.7: 2.4:</p> <p>2.6: 0.9: 1.0: 0.9. Mid tibia with 4 anterodorsal, 1 posterodorsal and 3 anteroventral bristles.</p> <p>Mid basitarsus with long ventral setae. 2nd tarsomere of mid tarsus at base with 1 long and 1</p> <p>short ventral setae. Relative length of mid tibia and 5 tarsomeres (from 1st to 5th) is 6.2: 3.3:</p> <p>1.6: 1.5: 0.7: 0.5. Hind tibia not swollen, with 4 anterodorsal and 1 posterodorsal bristles.</p> <p>Hind basitarsus swollen.

The species is named for the curved segments of the fore tarsus.</p> <p>NOTES. New species is similar to Rh. firsovi Stackelberg et Negrobov, 1976, known from Primorsky Krai (Russia) and Alaska (USA), but differs from the latter in morphology of apical segments of the fore tarsi, by color of the fore femur, and by morphology of hypopygium. In Rh. firsovi, fore femur yellow; 4th tarsomere of fore tarsus not widened, 5th tarsomere without group of long setae; surstyli straight (see Negrobov, 1979: figs 1761–1764),</p> <p>while in Rh. curvitarsus sp. n., fore femur mostly dark, 4th tarsomere of fore tarsus widened,</p> <p>5th tarsomere with a group of long setae (Fig. 2), and surstyli as in Fig. 3.</p> <p>lateral view; 3 – surstyli, ventral view; 4 – hypopygium, lateral view; 5 – hypopygium,</p> <p>ventral view.</p> <p>Key to species and subspecies of Rhaphium estimated or recorded from Sakhalin and Kuril Islands</p> <p>1.
