Descriptions of new Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) reared from native fruit in Kenya Author Razowski, Józef Author Brown, John W. text Zootaxa 2012 3222 1 27 journal article 45308 10.5281/zenodo.280255 9d264785-6035-49e2-b6cf-29e3022a6e80 1175-5326 280255 Cydia sennae , sp. n. Figs. 10 , 24 , 35 Diagnosis. Cydia sennae resembles Fulcrifera aphrospila (Meyrick, 1921) from South Africa in facies, but the male genitalia of C. sennae have a large triangular lobe at the ventral edge of the cucullus similar to that of Cydia microgrammana (Guenée, 1845) and some Palearctic species. The male genitalia lack the elongate, strongly sclerotized process that parallels the phallus dorsally (e.g., Horak 2006 : fig. 876), which is one of the most conspicuous synapomorphies for Fulcrifera Danilevsky and Kuznetsov, 1968 . Description. Male. Head : Vertex and frons dark gray; labial palpus gray with scattered whitish scales, length about 1.2 times horizontal diameter of compound eye. Thorax : Notum pale brownish gray, longer scales tipped with cream, especially those of tegula; legs unmodified. Forewing length 4.8–5.5 mm (mean = 5.2; n = 8); costal fold absent; forewing slightly expanding distally; costa nearly straight; termen weakly oblique to costa, with concave notch below apex; ground color pale brownish gray, some scales tipped with white, subbasal facia expressed as narrow, dark brown line, expanded slightly at dorsum into triangular spot; speculum concolorous with ground color, situated in preterminal area, with two or three black inner spots; costal strigulae present throughout entire length of costa, white and grayish white, divisions brownish gray; remainder of wing slightly paler than costal divisions, in terminal area sprinkled with whitish; fringe dark gray. Hindwing pale brownish, lighter basally, almost white; fringe pale brownish, whitish in anal half. Abdomen : Genitalia ( Fig. 24 ) with tegumen slender; socii atrophied; valva broad, neck weakly defined; ventral lobe of cucullus projecting downward as triangular process, lacking spines; cucullus semi-oval; phallus moderately curved in basal 0.3, distal half extremely slender, straight, slightly attenuate distally; vesica without cornuti. Female. Head and thorax : Essentially as described for male, except forewing length 4.8–5.5 mm (mean = 5.3; n = 8); forewing overall slightly darker; hindwing uniformly grayish brown, frenulum with three bristles. Abdomen : Genitalia ( Fig. 35 ) with papillae anales slender; apophyses anteriores slightly longer than posteriores; sterigma weakly sclerotized, surrounding large ostium bursae; ductus bursae slender; corpus bursae ovoid, with two large, bladelike signa.
