Gondwanoscurus curleri can be separated from all other described species of the genus on the presence of a protuberance on the first flagellomere, gonostylus with only a single lobe, and surstyli with 8–9 spatulate tenacula with apices not split.</p> <p>Description.

The species epithet is dedicated to the senior author’s good friend and colleague Greg Curler, in recognition of his many contributions to the taxonomy, systematics and morphology of Psychodidae.</p> <p>Bionomics. The four specimens of the type series were collected in April and November in primary rainforest at an altitude of approximately 1440 meters above sea level.</p> <p>Distribution. Known from two localities in the Mazumbai forest reserve in Tanzania.</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/49123876FFF94C3A01FCBB937985B8D7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
