VIII, figs. 25 a–d, new synonym Male genitalia (figs 2–6). Anal tube developed posteriorly and laterally (fig. 2), protecting genitalia dorsally. Dorsal margin of pygofer slightly concave in middle. Ventral margin of pygofer longer than dorsal margin. Posterior margin of pygofer roughly straight vertically. Gonostyli bearing dorso-anteriorly a small spine orientated interiorly (fig. 2). Periandrium protruding laterally with gutter on each side receiving anterior ventral process of aedeagus (fig. 3). Dorsal margin of periandrium strongly curved dorsally with apex orientated anteriorly (fig. 4). Slender process orientated anteriorly on each side of protruding periandrium. Apex of aedeagus inflated, dorsal margin strongly curved dorsally (fig. 5). Processes of aedeagus orientated ventrally and anteriorly, posterior process slimmer than anterior (fig. 5). Fifth instar nymph (figs 7–9). General colour light brown with some dark brown patches. Dorsal view vertex cream with lateral carinae reddish, prothorax dark brown except for sensory pits which are light cream (fig. 7). Mesothorax: general pattern light brown to cream with dark brown patch on centre, red along sublateral carinae. Head: 1 row of 11 sensory pits between margin and sub-lateral carina of frons, 7 pits closer to compound eye (fig. 8). Dorsally, sensory pits along median frontal carina and vertex-frons carinae. Prothorax, 3 pits along internal margin of each sub-lateral carinae plus 3 pits running on from apex of carinae toward lateral apex of prothorax. Mesothorax: median group of 2 pits each and 2 pits on each wing pad. Metathorax: 2 pits in median group. Abdominal tergites IV to VII each with 4 pits on each side, VIII with one. Posteriorly with 2 circular wax plates (fig. 9) that produce very long twisted stem of wax (fig. 7). FIGURE 1. Habitus of the type specimen of M. subocellata . FIGURES 2–6.
