| Popis: | Megaphyllum (Megaphyllum) spathulatum (Lohmander, 1936) Chromatoiulus (Chromatoiulus) spathulatus Lohmander, 1936: 104-109, figs 80-84. Chromatoiulus (Chromatoiulus) spathulatus: Attems 1940: 306. Chromatoiulus spathulus (sic!): Lang 1959: 1791. Megaphyllum spathulatum: Golovatch 1990b: 364; 1992: 381; Lazányi and Vagalinski 2013: 87, fig. 18b-d; Kokhia and Golovatch 2018: 41; 2020: 206. Material examined (SMNG): Russia: RU12-86, 1 ♂, 1 ♀, Republic of Adygea, Kamennomostkiy, northern end of Dakhovskaya Canyon near quarry, limestone cliffs, 44.2844°N, 40.1778°E, 430 m a.s.l., 24.VIII.2012, F. Walther leg.; RU12-051, 3 ♂♂, 1 juv., Dakhovskaya, limestone cliffs NW of, 44.2439°N, 40.1758°E, 800 m a.s.l., 13.VIII.2012, F. Walther leg.; 33579, 1 ♂, Republic of Adygea, Mount Shibaba, 21.V.2004, K. Voigtländer leg. Diagnosis. Differs from its only congener known from the Caucasus, M. (s. str.) Megaphyllum hercules, mainly by the colour pattern: body with a light yellow to ochre dorsum divided by a black axial line, vs. body uniformly dark with an orange to dark red mid-dorsal line in M. hercules; and by the promere significantly tapering all the way to a narrowly rounded apex, vs. the same having mostly parallel side margins, ending with a flat apex in M. hercules. Previous records from the Caucasus. Western Caucasus (unspecified type locality) (Lohmander 1936). General distribution. WCIS? Remark. This species seems to be a narrow local endemic of the northwestern foothills of the Caucasus Major, showing preferences for limestone terrain.
