( Figs 13–24 ) Diagnosis. Belonging in species group bravoi of Subgroup MPB1 (Hypandrium of one sclerite), see Discussion below. Proximal ends of the lateral sclerites fused to the central sclerite, this anteriorly rounded, posteriorly bilobed, each lobe robust, setose, slightly directed outward distally, with a deep incision between the lobes. Side struts of phallosome V-shaped. Mesal endophallic sclerite broadly X-shaped, posterior arms short, anterior arms long, with a rectangular protuberance between them. IX sternum more widened anteriorly and anterior border somewhat concave. Male. Color (in 80% ethanol). Body brown. Head pale brown, with pattern of dark brown spots ( Fig. 15 ). Compound eyes dark brown, ocelli hyaline, with ochre centripetal crescents; antennae light brown, f1–f10 cream apically. Maxillary palps pale brown, Mx4 dark brown distally. Thorax pale brown, with cream spots. Tergal lobes of meso- and metathorax brown with pale brown spots. Thoracic mesopleura brown, with cream spots. Coxae, trochanters and femora light brown, coxae with basal and apical dark spots; hind femora with dark spots distally; tibiae and tarsi light brown. Forewings almost hyaline, with pale brown spots at the ends of R, M, CuA 1 and CuA 2 ; pterostigma hyaline, with proximal and distal brown bands, pale brown spots distally on cells r 5 , m 1 and m 2 ; veins brown ( Fig. 13 ). Hindwings mostly hyaline, veins brown ( Fig. 14 ). Abdomen cream with ochre spots. Epiproct and paraprocts pale brown. Hypandrium pale brown. Endophallic sclerites dark brown. Morphology. As in diagnosis, plus the following: Head ( Fig. 15 ): H/MxW: 1.59; H/D: 2.04; IO/MxW: 0.46. Vertex slightly emarginate, below the upper margin of the compound eyes.

Phallosome ( Fig. 18 ); external parameres, distally sclerotized, with some short teeeth; pair of anterior sclerites slender, acuminate, lateral pair of sclerites elongate, with outward curved process. Paraprocts oval, with dense setal field posteriorly, as illustrated; a macrosetae near each sensory field, these with 30 trichobothria on basal rosettes ( Fig. 16 ). Epiproct ( Fig. 16 ) semioval, broadly rounded posteriorly, setae as illustrated. Measurements.
