Rediscovery of two African species of Lachesilla Westwood in Yemen, with first description of their males (Psocodea: 'Psocoptera': Lachesillidae)
Lachesilla anura Badonnel and L. grandis Badonnel are recorded from Yemen and both sexes are illustrated based on this newly-studied material. Males of these species were previously unknown. A male specimen described and tentatively assigned to L. anura by Badonnel is herein described as Lachesilla guineensis Lienhard, n. sp. The female genitalia of L. anura are unique in the genus Lachesilla Westwood, especially due to the complete absence of gonapophyses and the presence of particularly complex sclerotizations surrounding the spermapore.
