Male FW venation. 1 , M. priapus . 2 , M. elegans . 3 , M. rectinervus . 4-5 , male genitalia in dorsal and lateral views of M. rectinervus . Dotted areas on FWs represent patterns of coloration (high density of dots: dark areas; low density of dots: whitish, yellow areas). Dotted areas on male genitalia represent membranous parts. Scale bars = 1 mm . ADDITIONAL CHARACTERS. — Fastigium longer than in M. rectinervus (Fig. 6A). Male: FW venation (Fig. 2).
