Setation of anterior T2: interrupted medially. Lateral patch on T2: absent. Foamy structures on S1: absent. Transverse felt field on anterior S2: present. Shape of S2 in lateral view: broadly convex. Diagnosis. Helava aureipes and H. allomera are the only two South American species with notauli. They can be separated from each other by the transepisternal line, which is absent in H. allomera and present as a distinct groove in H. aureipes . Etymology. The epithet " Helava aureipes " is given to this species in reference to the golden colour of the legs. Link to distribution map. http://hol.osu.edu/map-large.html?id=354390 Material examined.
