( Fig. 4F )

DISTRIBUTION. — Probably widely distributed; many previous records have been attributed to Synura petersenii sensu lato ( Škaloud et al. 2012; Gusev et al. 2016).

REMARKS

This species can easily be distinguished from the other taxa of the Synura petersenii -complex by its rounded scales with large keel and large base plate pores ( Škaloud et al. 2012).
