Description

Zalutschia type B (Fig. 71)

This morphotype corresponds to Zalutschia type B sensu Brooks et al. (2007), however, Medeiros & Quinlan (2011) pointed out conflicts of this morphotype with numerous other publications and suggest to refere to it as Zalutschia lingulata pauca - type. Head capsule yellow, occipital margin light brown. Teeth of mandible and mentum strongly pigmented, darker than occipital margin. Outermost mental tooth not significantly reduced. Mandible with first and second teeth subequal in size, third tooth markedly smaller. Basal antennal segment longer than flagellum (length of blade unknown, but larvae with long basal antennal segment have blade at most as long as flagellum, see Saether 1976).
