Aquattuor fasciatus
Diagnostic description:Diagnosis follows Enghoff (2020: 14)[1] and Enghoff (in litt., 9.iii.2021):
Diameter 1.55–1.91 mm, 51–53 (55?) podous rings. Shares a short (as broad as long, or slightly longer) gonopodal palette with A. claudiahempae, A. denticulatus, A. stereosathe, A. submajor and A. udzungwensis. Differs from these species, except A. claudiahempae, by the combination of fully developed telopodites on the first pair of male legs, the gonopodal telomere describing a ca. 270° curve, curving almost in one plane only, by lacking a spinose lid-like flap on the basal telomeral lamella, and by having a distinct meso-basal lobe of the gonopod palette. Very similar to, and perhaps not distinct from A. claudiahempae, differs by being mostly larger (male diameter > 1.5 mm) and by having the prefemoral processes of the first pair of male legs stouter, subtriangular.
