Monatractides ventriosa (K. Viets, 1916)

Material examined. Mayotte, Comoros : 1/0/0, Mro oua Longoni (Longoni River), 12°44'21,12" S 45°9'54,97" E, 14 May 2006.

Remarks. According to Cook (1966), Monatractides ventriosa is an extremely variable species or, more likely, a series of very closely related species which are presently being confused. The variability of populations from different regions of the whole distribution area needs to be examined to clarify the taxonomy.
