Key to species of Eutarsopolipus from Castelnaudia The key to species of the piratica subgroup was also published in Seeman (2019b); E. piraticus is included although its host is Trichosternus. The key is primarily to adult females although larvae are helpful for separation of some species. 1. Claw on leg I absent, unguinal setae on tarsi II-III massive, hook-like. (piratica subgroup)........................... 2 - Claw on leg I present, unguinal setae on tarsi II-III enlarged, bifid, never hook like................................. 4 2.
