Figs 4 , 7 , 11–13 , Map 5 Description. — General coloration dark brown and light brown. Head: light brown laterally beginning in anteocular region and ending in postocular region, dark brown dorsally, behind antennifer spines to neck (including clypeus); antennifer spines brown; eyes not surpassing margins of head; antenna I and II brown; rostrum I light brown dorsally and ventrally, dark brown laterally; II and III dark brown. Pronotum: anterior lobe, anterolateral angles, and collar brown, with an “H” light brown coloration pattern ( Fig. 4 B); submedian carina from anterior margin of posterior lobe to less than half length of posterior lobe; posterior lobe, humeral spines, discal spines and posterior margin light brown, with an inverted “V” brown coloration pattern beginning in anterior margin and reaching each humeral and discal spines. Scutellum: principal body light brown; posterior process pale, short, acuminate and flat. Pleura: light brown; prosterna brown. Legs: coxae and trochanters light brown; fore femora light brown with a brown narrow band pattern close to apex; hind femora light brown except apically, this dark brown; fore tibiae light brown with a narrow brown band pattern near base and brown apically; hind tibiae brown with a light brown band pattern near center; tarsus brown. Abdomen: connexival segments: light brown; segment VI armed with a short brown spine at their outer apical angles; urosternites light brown except laterally with an irregular brown band pattern in segments III–IV near connexivum ( Fig. 7 D). Macropterous form: dark brown. Hemelytra: corium and clavus dark brown; hemelytron 1.04 mm longer than abdomen; membrane hyaline-brownish. Female genitalia: posterior view: as in ( Fig. 11 N). Gonocoxite VIII: sparse thin hairs ( Fig. 12 N), anterior fibula slightly curved ( Fig. 12 N). Gonapophysis VIII: without hairs ( Fig. 12 N). Gonocoxite IX: ventrally with sparse thin hairs, wide basally ( Fig. 13 N). Distribution : Brazil . Material examined . HOLOTYPE , 1 Ƥ Brazil : Amazonas : Río Cauaburi, [ 3°10'N – 67°16'W ], 16/I/1963 , C. Lindenmann leg., ( ZSM ). Measurements . As in Table 20 . Remarks . It superficially resembles R. flavicans , R. brailovskyi sp. nov. , and R. sexdens , but can be distinguished by the light brown “H” shaped pattern on the anterior lobe of pronotum, connexival segment VI armed with a spine, and genitalia traits. Etymology . Named for its unique spine in connexival segment VI. TABLE 20 . Selected measurements (mm.) of Repipta unispina Martin-Park & Coscarón , sp. nov .
