Loneura murui
sp.n.
Female
(
Figs 124–129
)
Diagnosis.
Wings hyaline. Forewing pterostigma long, slender. M 6-branched, M6 proximally forked. Hindwing M 3-branched. Pigmented area of subgenital plate dark brown, U-shaped, the arms of the U proximally dilated. Ninth sternum of three areas, broadly trapeziform, anterior area hyaline, posterior two areas pale brown.
Color
. Body brown. Head pattern (
Fig. 126
), vertex light brown; front with brown spots; an ochre diagonal band between the inner borders of each compound eye to the epistomal sulcus; two brown vertical bands on the pale brown genae; postgenae light brown. Compound eyes black, ocelli hyaline, with ochre centripetal crescents. Labrum, anteclypeus, postclypeus and mandibles pale brown, postclypeus with dark brown spot anteriorly. Antennae: scape and pedicel brown; flagella pale brown. Maxillary palps pale brown, Mx4 dark brown. Tergal lobes of meso- and metathorax dark brown, with light brown edges. Thoracic pleura light brown with ochre areas. Legs: coxae, trochanters and femora light brown; tibiae and tarsi pale brown. Wings hyaline, veins brown (
Figs 124–125
). Forewing pterostigma hyaline. Abdomen light brown. Clunium brown. Subgenital plate (
Fig. 127
) hyaline in the middle, with abundant setae on brown areolae. Gonapophyses and ninth sternum dark brown. Epiproct and paraprocts pale brown.
Morphology.
Head (
Fig. 126
) H/MxW: 1.39; compound eyes large, H/d: 3.91; IO/MxW: 0.74. Vertex at the same level of the upper border of the compound eyes; outer cusp of lacinial tips broad, with 5–6 denticles. Mx4/ Mx2: 1.15. Forewings (
Fig. 124
) L/W: 2.73; pterostigma: lp/wp: 5.18, elongate, wider in the middle; M six or seven-branched, M6 or M7 forked; areola postica: la/ha: 1.20, tall, broadly triangular, apically rounded. Hindwings (
Fig. 125

Fig. 127
) wide, setose, with posterior border rounded. Gonapophyses (
Fig. 129
): v1 elongate, slender and acuminate; v2+3 with a proximal slender heel, v2 with a row of 6–7 setae; distal process long, sinuous and acuminate, bearing microspicules on surface. Ninth sternum (
Fig. 129
). Paraprocts (
Fig. 128
) broadly triangular, with long and short setae posteriorly; sensory fields with 27–28 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Epiproct (
Fig. 128

share with
L. murui
having the wings hyaline, without brown spots on vein ends at wing margin, but the latter differs from them in having the forewing pterostigma elongate, shallow and completely unpigmented, in the shape of the pigmented area of the subgenital plate, and in the shape of the ninth sternum. It probably belongs in a group of its own, which awaits confirmation when the male be known (García Aldrete, 2003, 2004;
García Aldrete
et al.,
2011 a
;
Mendivil
et al.,
2017
, Williner, 1949).
