TYPE MATERIAL. — Vanuatu . [ Tafea Province ], Tanna Is., X.1930 , L. E. Cheesman, ♂ holotype ( BPBM 16,778). — Same locality, date and collector as holotype , ♀ paratype . Not examined. MATERIAL EXAMINED. — [ Vanuatu ] Nouvelles-Hébrides . [Province Tafea ], Tanna Is., 1924, E. Aubert de la Rüe, 1 ♀ , identified C. gaimardi by L. Chopard ( MNHN- ENSIF1179). TYPE LOCALITY. — Vanuatu , Tanna Is. DISTRIBUTION. — Vanuatu , Tanna Is. DIAGNOSIS. — Species of average size, comparable to C. tankara n. sp. (see below). Colouration light brown, little contrasted. Dorsal disk of pronotum with incomplete lateral bands. Male FW with a clear light crescent including posterior part of mirror; male genitalia close to that of C. tankara n. sp. , but differing by the shape of pseudepiphallic sclerite (dorsal crest not asymmetrical, lack of basal protuberance near median shrinkage). REDESCRIPTION In addition to the characters given by Otte (2007b) : general colouration light brown, little contrasted. Scapes yellowish brown. Fastigium 1.5 times as long FIG. 5.— Female FW venation: A , Cardiodactylus enkraussi Otte,2007 ; B , C.tankara n.sp. ; C , C.aobaensis n.sp. ; D , C.cheesmani Otte,2007 ; E , C. epiensis n. sp.

Scale bar: 1 mm. as wide, median ocellus yellow. Pronotum: dorsal disk trapezoidal, slightly bisinuated posteriorly. Fore tibiae not widened at tympana level. Hind tibiae dorsal face with 6 inner and 14 outer spines above spurs, 4 inner and 10 outer spines between spurs (n = 1). Tarsomeres III-1 with 4 spines on dorso-external edges (n = 1). FWs slightly longer than abdomen; hind wings forming a short grey brown tail about 1.5 times as long as pronotum. Cerci homogeneously brown. Female FW colouration ( Fig.5D ): dorsal field cells and longitudinal veins homogeneously brown, transverse veins whitish on FW anterior half; FW base with whitish sclerotization, including bases of 1-3A,CuP, CuA and MP; whitish area on anterior lateral angle, including MA/MP area, part of CuA and associated transverse veins.Area between CuA and CuP dark brown,except whitish transverse veins. Area between MP and R brown, R bifurcating veins whitish.FW venation:10 FIG. 7.— Female copulatory papilla in ventral,dorsal and lateral views: A -C , Cardiodactylus enkraussi Otte,2007 ; D -F , C. pentecotensis n. sp. ; G -I , C. cheesmani Otte, 2007 ; J -L , C. tankara n. sp. ; M -O , C. aobaensis n. sp. ; P -R , C. epiensis n. sp.
