REMARKS: The Greek ƋƋ (Figs 137-143) correspond to illustrations by Grimm (1985: fig. 279) and Miller (1967: figs 15-18). The ventral lobe of the terminal apophysis is relatively narrow in Fig. 138, it is variable in width and sometimes serrated. The Swiss ♀ (Figs 142-143) corresponds to illustrations by Grimm (1985: figs 292-293) and Miller (1967: fig. 7). The Greek ♀♀ differ (Figs 144-145) by longer epigynum and glandular duct, and by a shorter median duct.
