n. sp.
Male
(
Figs 22–28
)
Diagnosis.
Belonging in species group “2”, subgroup 4, in the classification of
Eertmoed (1986)
. In this subgroup it corresponds to species with phallosome with internal parameres vestigial, or not united posteriorly. Unlike
C. deliciasensis
n. sp.
, it does not have the paraproctal prong with a tapered basal tooth, and unlike
C. prionotus
,
C. mocoaensis
n. sp.
,
C. garciai
and
C. multimaculatus
, the epiproct has two tooth-like short projections distally, along the longitudinal midline (
Fig. 25
).
Color
. Head (
Fig. 24
) dark brown, anteclypeus and labrum pale brown. Compound eyes dark brown, ocelli hyaline. Antennae pale brown, flagellomeres with clear distal ends; maxillary palps pale brown. Meso- and metanotum brown, thoracic pleura and legs light brown, tibia and tarsi dark brown. Forewing membrane hyaline, with brown spots at wing margin; pterostigma with pale brown spot distally on costal area; wing margin with brown spots between the ends of veins R, M and Cu1 (
Fig. 22
); veins brown, with brown spots at ends of R, M and Cu1a. Hindwing hyaline with a smoked spot on vein ends, and on wing margin between M and Cu1 (
Fig. 23
). Abdomen cream, with light brown bands, clunium and hypandrium pale brown; phallosome pale brown; epiproct cream, with two little tubercles dark brown; paraprocts cream, paraproctal prong dark brown, more pigmented distally.
Morphology.
As in diagnosis plus the following: head vertex slightly concave, almost on the same level with the top margin of the compound eyes (
Fig. 24
). D is 60% the length of the head in front view, almost as wide as the interocular distance (1.15); with interommatidial setae. Forewings (
Fig. 22
), membrane of pterostigma without setae; without spur veins. Hypandrium (
Fig. 27
) broad, shield-shaped, rounded distally, with medium sized setae and lateral macrosetae. Epiproct trapeziform (
Fig. 25
), posterior border broadly rounded, three medium sized setae in mesal field, and field of medium sized setae and macrosetae distally. Paraprocts (
Fig. 26
) with abundant medium sized setae and macrosetae as illustrated; mesal prong stout, strongly sclerotized, acuminate distally; sensory fields with 18 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Phallosome sclerotized, slightly concave anteriorly, wider posteriorly, deeply cleft in the middle; external parameres broad, membranous, bearing pores, endophallic lobes triangular; arms of internal parameres separate, distally pointed, thick, well sclerotized (
Fig. 28
).
