Colouration of dry material. General body colour dark brown to black. Vertex green to brown yellowish, genal processes brown yellowish. Antenna brown yellowish, segments 3–6 each with apex black, segments 7 and 8 each with apical half black, and segments 9 and 10 entirely black. Thoracic dorsum dark brown yellowish to black; pronotum brown yellowish with black spot in middle; mesoscutum with 2 white spots on each side. Forewing transparent, colourless to light yellow, veins brown. Abdominal sclerites dark brown, intersegmental membranes white. Male proctiger brown yellowish with black apex; paramere light brown yellowish with black apex; subgenital plate light brown yellowish, sometimes black basally. Female terminalia brown yellowish.

Male terminalia as in Figs 80–82 . Proctiger 0.6 times as long as head width. Paramere 0.4 times as long as proctiger, with anterior margin almost straight; posterior margin slightly curved; digitiform apical process with posterior margin slightly sinuate, forming a strongly sclerotised small, posteriorly directed tooth. Apical segment of aedeagus 1.2 – 1.3 times as long as paramere. Female proctiger 0.7 times as long as head width. Measurements (in mm) (3 ♂, 3 ♀ ). Head width ♂ 0.47 – 0.52, ♀ 0.57; vertex length ♂ 0.17 – 0.26, ♀ 0.22 – 0.24; vertex width ♂ 0.22 – 0.29, ♀ 0.31; antenna length ♂ 1.16; metatibia length ♂ 0.45 – 0.56, ♀ 0.55 – 0.58; forewing length ♂ 2.05 – 2.43, ♀ 2.77 – 2.83; forewing width ♂ 0.74 – 0.88, ♀ 1.03 – 1.08; male proctiger length 0.28 – 0.29; paramere length 0.12 – 0.13; distal segment of aedeagus length 0.16; female proctiger length 0.41; female anal ring length 0.41. Fifth-instar immature. Corresponding to generic description, see also comments below. Etymology. Named after the Canarios people, indigenous inhabitants of Gran Canaria. Host plant CI. Convolvulus floridus (Convolvulaceae) . Distribution CI. Gran Canaria, adventive in Tenerife. Percyella canari is native to Gran Canaria. Its presence in an urban environment in Tenerife suggests an accidental introduction along with the host plant. Biology. The predator Anthocoris salicis Lindberg ( Hemiptera : Anthocoridae ) has been observed in the galls. Comments: Percyella canari differs from the other Percyella species in having a black spot in the middle of the pronotum that is absent in the other species. It also differs in the shape of the paramere: the posterior margin is less curved than in P. benahorita but more than in P. gomerita and P. guanche , in which it is straight basally and curved apically; the posterior margin of the apical process is slightly sinuate with a flat hump (almost straight in P. benahorita , straight in P. gomerita , and sinuate in P. guanche ). No characters were found to separate the immatures of P. canari from those of the other Percyella species.
