Auriculoceryx kannegieteri Rothschild comb. n.
Trichaeta kannegieteri Rothschild, 1910, Novit. zool, 17: 431.
These two species may be sister-species. They resemble transitiva in facies, having the abdominal bands white, though the distal one is lost in kannegieteri and some Sumatran specimens (e.g. the holotype of klossi). The uncus is more sinuous than in the Bornean species, with the basal portion deepened vertically, rather than expanded laterally. The uncus is relatively much smaller in kannegieteri than in basalis.
