a carapace, dorsal view; b third and fourth thoracic
sternites, ventral view; c left third maxilliped, lateral view; d telson, external view.
Tergites II-V orange with apical margin black, VI + black;
sternite I smooth, brownish; II-VI light brown and coriaceous.
Key characters for the genus Parajapyx are as follows: chitinous hooks at tip of abdomen, with five internal teeth, tooth 1 is separated from teeth 2-5 by an indentation near the basal portion of inner margin; antenna with 18 segments; terminal antennal segment with four placoid sensilla; mandible with five teeth and three denticles; pronotum with 7+7 M setae; a pair of styles on
sternites I--VII; a pair of coxal vesicles on abdominal urosternites II and III; unpaired median claw (Chou 1966; Sendra et al.
There are two setae row on the
sternites. Post-spiracular seta IV is shorter than the others.
Khaghaninia and Hosseini (2013) keyed out this species with characteristics as: mesonotum with distinct pale pruinose stripes which reach posterior margin of notum, interrupted in middle; posterior margin of
sternite 4 with a rounded projection.
Female genitalia:
sternite II with 3-4 setae on each side and a row of 6 setae on the posterior margin;
sternite III with a row of 8 setae on the posterior margin.
2) corroborated, once again, that the alcohol (DTOH) is extracted only from the abdominal region of the termite, specifically from the ventral
sternites.
In this case, adult pseudoscorpions attach themselves to the abdominal
sternites of the fly Fannia canicularis (Linnaeus, 1761) (Lira et al., 2014).
The 6th abdominal
sternite gibbous, the 7th abdominal
sternite with a triangular ridge at its front margin pointing to the subgenital plate (Figs 26-27).
Sternite XIII with an anterior medial plate, and posterior orifice.
