Brazil , Acre , Bujari , Floresta Estadual Antimary 09°20’01”S / 68°19’17”W , 25– 27.viii.2016 , malaise J.A. Rafael leg . ( INPA ). Description. Male. Pronotal disc greenish blue; postocular strip, strip of the upper half of the lateral lobes of pronotum, tegmina, wings, and dorsal portion of the abdominal and thoracic tergites black ( Fig. 26A ), although the tegmina has a yellowish-white stripe running from the base to the tip between the Cu vein and the anal margin, besides a subapical ovoid spot ( Fig. 26C ); face, lower half of the lateral lobes of the pronotum, lateral margin of the thorax, and abdomen grey on a yellow backdrop; legs light brown with irregular grey spots on all legs. Head elongated and thin in frontal view, eyes globose and prominent, expanding moderately towards the sides; frontal costa rounded in side view, narrow in frontal view with parallel margins, forming a narrow scutellum; frontal carina short and divergent towards the clypeal triangle, dorsal carinae very short and inconspicuous ( Fig. 26B ). Pronotum, flat and not tectate, extending noticeably beyond the abdomen tip; medial line of the pronotal disc going through the pronotum from the anterior to the posterior margin, finely delineated with black from the anterior margin to close half its length; anterior spine stout, anterior arcuate, ascendant to anterior edge, but not curving downwards in the distal portion ( Fig. 26D ); lateral lobes wider than tall; lateral shoulder carinae rounded and poorly protruding ( Fig. 26C ). Tegmina ovoid, reaching the base of the first abdominal tergite ( Fig. 26C ). Legs slender and elongate, fore femora with a very poorly developed sulcation above, without apical spine; mid femora with a well-developed internal dorso-apical spine; hind femora with an undeveloped pregenicular spine. Abdomen. Subgenital plate wider than long, a little upturned ( Figs. 26 E–G), almost subacuate; penultimate sternite with a medial prolongation; lateral margins of this sternite with a medial prolongation, lateral borders of this sternite protruding in the dorsal margin ( Fig. 26F ); cerci cylindrical, slim and keeping the same width from the base to the tip, distal portion rounded ( Fig. 26G ); epiproct lance-shaped, with a rounded tip ( Fig. 26E ).
