Metatarsi I and II heavily ornamented on proximal half, with distal half smooth (Fig. 29A, B). Remaining metatarsi with full ornamentation (Fig. 29

Long seta rising from medial (internal) face of adenostyle from below pore to above apex (Fig. 29D, E); very short seta rising from adenostyle base below pore on lateral (external) face (Fig. 29D) (example with adenostyle features labeled, Fig. 5).

The specific epithet is a tribute to the legendary Queensland field biologist Geoff Monteith for his invaluable knowledge of Wet Tropics entomology, which guided much of our fieldwork. The authors also wish to recognize his outsize generosity and hospitality to visiting researchers. In addition, he collected many of the specimens used in this study, including the holotype for
