Myopsocus caliensis
n. sp.
(
Figs 91–96
)
Diagnosis.
Belonging to the assemblage of species that do not present the forewing with the scalloped apical margin, unlike these it presents a pyriform phallosome, with narrow and fused phallobase, wider distally (
Fig. 96
), external parameres flattened, widened and curved inward, apically separated by short membrane; endophallus elongated, flattened, distally and apically more broadened.
Male. Color.
Head (
Fig. 93
) dark brown, darker genae, clypeus and labrum. Compound eyes black, ocelli hyaline, with ochre centripetal crescents. Forewing (
Fig. 91
) with dark brown spots, with well-marked basal fascia, pterostigma filled with small purple spots that extends outside the margin, while retaining its shape, alar margin dotted, venation poorly differentiated basally and distally marked. Hindwing (
Fig. 92
) smoked, with veins brown and dotted alar margin. Legs: coxae and trochanter dark brown, femur dark brown with subapical band white-creamy, tibia and tarsi brown. Hypandrium, paraprocts and epiproct dark brown.
Morphology.
As in diagnosis, plus the following: Head (
Fig. 93
) H/MxW: 1.25; compound eyes grandes, H/D: 1.74, with interonmatidial setae; vertex with emargination ‘V’-shaped, with slightly pronounced bulge before the epicranial suture. IO/MxW: 0.50. Outer cusp of lacinial tips little wide, with four denticles; Mx4/Mx2: 1.38. Forewings (
Fig. 91
): L/W: 2.68. Pterostigma: lp/wp: 2.67, areola postica wider than tall, apically angled: al/ah: 1.67. Hindwings (
Fig. 92
): l/w: 2.62. Paraprocts (
Fig. 94
) with well-sclerotized conical lateral projection hiding a small membranous tubercle covered setae, sensory fields with 23 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Epiproct (
Fig. 94
) crescent-shaped, with a transverse dorsal protuberance with superficial small tubercles, distal edge rounded and an apical bulge with four distal setae.
