Tomosvaryella freidbergi De Meyer, 1995 View in CoL
Figs 14A‒E View FIGURE 14 , 54 View FIGURE 54
Diagnosis: This species can be recognized by the slender shape of surstyli in dorsal view ( Fig. 14A View FIGURE 14 ); both surstyli straight in basal half, gently bent in apical half in lateral view ( Fig. 14D‒E View FIGURE 14 ); epandrium longer than wide ( Fig. 14A View FIGURE 14 ); gonopods equal in height ( Fig. 14B View FIGURE 14 ). Based on the shape of genitalia, this species is part of the kuthyi species group ( Tomosvaryella emaratensis sp. nov., T. cyprusensis sp. nov., T. hispanica , T. israelensis , T. kuthyi and T. parakuthyi ). It differs from these species by the shape of surstyli in lateral view, slender, slightly straight in basal half and being bent in apical half ( De Meyer, 1995: fig. 13a–c; Földvári & De Meyer, 1999: fig. 10A–D). See diagnosis of T. emaratensis sp. nov. and T. cyprusensis sp. nov. for more details.

Notes: DNA barcodes of T. freidbergi are identical to those of T. kuthyi (0.0‒1.5% pairwise divergence). The terminalia of these species differ a little by the shape of left surstylus, so this is likely a case of recently-diverged species or ancestral hybridisation. It is possible that these are a single species with polymorphic genitalia, so future genetic work is warranted.
