( Figs. 1-3 ) Type material. Holotype ( ♂ ): „ Chile , M. Huaranua , Qyarapula, 29.i.1992 ”, ( JHAC ). Description. Male. Body measurements (mm): TL 3.4, EW 1.7; cuticle unicolorous, brown in dorsad and ventral surfaces; longish oval, covered with mainly suberected brown and white setae ( Fig. 1 ). Head sparsely but quite coarsely punctate, covered with white suberected hsetae. Palpi light brown. Ocellus on frons very distinctly present. Antennae ( Fig. 2 ) entirely brown as in the palpi, 11 antennomered, antennal club 3 antennomerd, dark brown with short white setation. Eyes large with white microsetae. Setation and punctation of the pronotum very similar to that of the head, looking a little bit brindled by a mixture of bright and dark brown setae. Lateral parts of pronotum slightly dentate. Scutellum brown, very small, triangular and wearing a few recumbent brown setae. Elytra somewhat more coarsely punctate than in the pronotum, with an distinct humeral bump; cuticle brown, covered by white and brown setae; white setae forming fasciae as in Fig. 1 . Epipleura brown as in the elytra; mesoventrite and metaventrite brown covered by white setae. Abdominal ventrites also brown, densely and distinctly punctate, covered with white, recumbent setae. Legs brown with yellow and white setae; tibiae with short, brown spines; tarsi also brown, distinctly shorter than the tibiae. Male genitalia ( Fig. 3 ). Female. Unknown. Differential diagnosis. At the first glance the new species looks quite similar to Paranovelsis bitaeniatus (Steinheil, 1869) and Paranovelsis platanegrachei Herrmann & Háva 2014 , but differs from them by the elytral setation, structure of antennae and male genitalia. Etymology. Named according to south American ave Harpia harpyja (Linnaeus, 1758) ( Accipitridae ).
