Abstract:
Genus Pharmacus Pictet & de Saussure, 1893 Pharmacus Pictet & de Saussure, 1893: 301–302. Pharmacus – Hutton 1896: 238. — Richards 1972: 154–156. Type species Pharmacus montanus Pictet & de Saussure, 1893. Etymology ‘ Pharmăcus ’ is Latin for ‘sorcerer’. The noun’s gender is masculine. Description A genus of small to mid-sized cave wētā (adult body length 10 to 18 mm, typically around 15 mm) with a distribution limited to the high alpine regions of the South Island of New Zealand. Only found above tree-line, often above snow-line, at elevations as high as 2800 m a.s.l. All species in the genus look similar to each other. While this makes it easy to characterise the genus, an examination of the adult male terminalia is often required for a reliable identification to the species level. A detailed description of the genus follows below; individual species descriptions focus on those traits that vary between species or that differ from the generic description.
