Microphorella trochanterata lineage
This distinctive lineage includes M. trochanterata sp. nov. and a second species, Microphorella sp. A , which is not formally named and described on account of the poor condition of the unique male specimen (see below). Males of this lineage share a number of putative synapomorphies including a large rounded or disc-like apex of the hind trochanter ( Figs 93, 94 View FIGURES 92–96 ), a narrow process of abdominal sternite 6 ( Fig. 96 View FIGURES 92–96 ), an articulated elbow-like phallus, a posteriorly produced hypandrium and a digitiform cercus with long setae ( Figs 97–99 View FIGURES 97–99 ).
