Coracina pectoralis (Jardine & Selby, 1828) – white-breasted cuckooshrike. Type locality. Luanshya , Zambia . Diagnosis. Indoceoplanetes ( Indoceoplanetes ) zambica new species is most similar to In. ( In. ) incisoma new species . For a comparison between these two species, see the diagnosis for In. ( In. ) incisoma , above. Description. Both sexes . Head rounded trapezoidal ( Fig. 45 ), lateral margins of preantennal head convex, frons slightly concave. Marginal carina broad, narrowing anterior to dsms , deeply displaced and widened at osculum. Ventral anterior plate rounded, with concave anterior margin and sinuous lateral margins. Head chaetotaxy as in Fig. 45 . Preantennal nodi wide, bulging slightly. Pre- and post-ocular nodi large, connected dorsally by broad ocular band. Marginal temporal carina slender. Gular plate triangular, lateral margins convex. Thoracic and abdominal segments as in Figs 43–44 . Base pigmentation translucent; head nodi, proepimera, and metepisterna medium brown; much of preantennal head (dotted line in Fig. 45 ), margins of antennal sockets, gular plate, sternal plates V–VI (in some specimens also posterior end of sternal plate IV), subgenital plates, and central part of female tergopleurite IX+X pale brown. Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Fig. 43 ; tergopleurites IV–V with 1 ss on each side and tergopleurite VI with 2 ss on each side; sternite IV with 1 sts one each side; male abdominal segment VI with 1 ps on each side. Basal apodeme rounded, narrowing slightly distally, lateral margins slightly concave ( Fig. 46 ). Proximal mesosome with antero-lateral extensions ( Fig. 47 ), anterior margin concave. Mesosomal lobes divergent distally. Distal margin of mesosome roughly flat. Gonopore with bluntly triangular antero-lateral extensions. Dorsal fringe tilted posteriorly. Chaetotaxy: 1 ventral gpmes microseta on each side of distal gonopore; 2 lpmes microsetae on each side on mesosomal lobes, with distal lpmes near distal margin; 1 dorsal ames microseta on each side median to dorsal fringes. Parameres and pst1–2 as in Fig. 48 . Measurements as in Table 1 . Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Fig. 44 . Subgenital plate hexagonal ( Fig. 49 ), distal margin flat. Vulval margin concave medianly, with 2–3 short, slender vms and 0–1 short, thorn-like vss on each side; 5–7 slender vos on each side of subgenital plate; distal 1–3 vos distal to vss and substantially longer than vms . Measurements as in Table 1 . Etymology. The species epithet is derived from the name of the country of the type locality. Type material.
