Amorbia catarina Phillips & Powell , new species Figs. 20 , 66 , 133 DIAGNOSIS. Amorbia catarina is distinguished from A. dominica , its most closely related species, by the presence of differentiated scales on the HW anal area, which are long, straight, and concolorous with the wing; the presence of a dorsal hump on the second segment of the abdomen; and possession of anterior projections of the sacculus. DESCRIPTION. MALE. FW length 8.5–8.9 mm (mean = 8.8; n = 5). HEAD: Frons convex, white scaled, vertex scaling in two groups, brown. Labial palpus 2.0X length of inter-antennal space, brown laterally, paler on inner surface; junction of segments II and III an oblique angle. THORAX: Dorsum smooth scaled, brown; tegula concolorous. FW ground brown with basal, median, and subterminal fasciae, and apex darker. Costal fold well developed, reaching ca. 0.5 length of FW. HW pale brown, scales in anal region long, straight, concolorous. Rs vein swollen in basal 0.33. ABDOMEN: Dorsal pit absent, a dorsal hump present on second segment. Genitalia as in Fig. 66 (slide # EPR48, USNM, Trinidad ; n = 3). Transtilla narrow in middle posterior, densely covered with fine spines. Valva subrectangular. Sacculus well defined, ca. 0.65X length of valva, without emargination, with anterior projections. Aedeagus stout, 0.5X length of valva, bent near middle. FEMALE. Unknown. TYPE MATERIAL.
