Scale bar: 1 cm. + + + + + +Differential diagnosis. + + + +Protoleptops nyeupe + +sp. nov. +can be easily distinguished from all the other known species of the genus by the following combination of characters: (1) incomplete carination of the propodeum, with costulae lacking and area dentipara confluent with area externa and area spiracularis (almost complete in + +P. heinrichi + +); (2) temples straight and converging (bulging and not converging in + +P. farquharsoni + +, + +P. heinrichi + +and + +P. magnificus + +); (3) white hind tarsus (infuscate in + +P. farquharsoni + +, + +P. heinrichi + +, and + +P. magnificus + +); (4) presence of a scopa taking up 1 / 3 of the ventral part of the coxa (absent in + +P. heinrichi + +, reduced in + +P. angolae + +and + +P. farquharsoni + +, and taking up 2 / 3 of the ventral side of the coxa in + +P. magnificus + +); (5) mesocutellum entirely white (reddish-orange in + +P. farquharsoni + +and + +P. angolae + +; with lateral white marks in + +P. heinrichi + +and + +P. magnificus + +); (6) T 2 medially longitudinally striate (densely punctate in + +P. angolae + +and + +P. farquharsoni + +); (7) area petiolaris well delimited (not well delimited in + +P. angolae + +sp. nov. +); and (8) mesopleuron superficially and sparsely punctate (densely and strongly punctate in + +P. angolae + +). + + + + +Etymology. + + +The specific epithet + +nyeupe + +is a noun in apposition, derived from the Swahili word + +“ +nyeupe + +” for white. This name refers to the extensive white coloration of the mesoscutum and mesoscutellum, which stands in stark contrast to the dark coloration of the rest of the body. + + + + +Description. + + +Holotype +female.
