This species can be distinguished from its close relative '' Kikihia dugdalei'' as it has green legs without the pink patches that mark the legs of ''K. dugdalei''. Male specimens of ''K. ochrina'' also always lack the pair o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
