Etymology:
Named for the thumb-shaped basal process of the right paramere after “policis” Latin for thumb.
Diagnosis:
Recognized by the small body length (
1.03 mm
), elongate oval forewing outline, short and wide rc, rc1, and tc (black star) (
Fig. 3
), slender vesica with acute tip, and thumb-shaped basal process of the right paramere (black arrow) (
Fig. 7
).
Description: Male:
Total body length
1.03 mm
; length from posterior margin of pronotum to posterior wing margin ambiguous
0.7 mm
; greatest width across pronotum
0.47 mm
; greatest width across forewings
0.63 mm
.
General coloration:
mix of pale and darker brown or reddish brown.
Vestiture:
Dorsum with sparse setae, setae short; setae on posterior margin of forewing long.
Structure: Head:
Eye almost half as high as head; muscle scars small.
Thorax:
Anterior pronotal margin concave, posterior margin slightly concave; pits on pronotum large, evenly distributed; scutellum in dorsal view gradually narrowed to tip, tip pointed.
Forewing:
With outline broad anteriorly, elongate oval; membrane contributing about one third of forewing length, posterior distal margin squarish, veintracing areoles on proximal part of wing absent; C+Sc broad, wider at widest part of wing; distal process of R pronounced; An1 wing organ on corium inflated, elongate, with median notch; without notch articulating with claval process; rc1 about 3 times as long as wide, much wider anteriorly; rc about 3 times as long as wide; tc about 3 times as long as wide; part of An1 and Cu forming posterodistal margin of tc of similar width as other veins; distal margin of rc1, rc, and tc cells double s-shaped; rc2–3 trapezoidal; cub almost reaching wing margin; dc1 horse headshaped.
Legs:
Claws long.
Genitalia
(
Fig. 7
): Pygophore without lobe on right side; vesica with between half and one loop, not reaching right pygophore margin, relatively slender at midpoint, tapering to acute tip, close to apex rounded; anophoric ridge with process, process short, with single lobe curved, tip pointed; right paramere curved, broad throughout, basal process thumb-shaped; left paramere straight, tapering, basal process narrow.
Female:
As in male and generic description.
Collecting method:
Collected using a Malaise Trap.
