Dicranophora
Macquart
1. Scutellum with scutellar process (main branch + fork)........................................................ 2
- Scutellum without scutellar process..................................................
D. bispinosa
(Wiedemann)
2. Scutellar process length less than half of the abdomen length.................................................. 3
- Scutellar process almost the same length or longer than the abdomen............................................. 4
3. Scutellar process virtually the same length as scutellum with a small convergent fork (approximately half of the process). Mid femur with a dentate process on basal third, positioned proximally on the ventral surface and preceded by a series of irregular denticles..............................................................................
D. astuta
Williston
- Scutellar process longer than scutellum (approximately 2.5x) with a large convergent fork (approximately two thirds of the process). Mid femur with a dentate process on apical third, positioned on the ventral surface, without additional denticles.........................................................................................
D. picta
Macquart
4. Scutellar process as long as or longer than abdomen length with a small and inconspicuous divergent fork (approximately
14x
smaller than main branch). Mid femur with two dentate processes, the first at the middle third and the second at the apical third, both positioned ventrally and preceded by a series of irregular denticles.................
D. furcifera
