Anacroneuria toriba
. Female: (30), sterna 8 and 9. (31), egg. Scale bar: (30), 0.8 mm; (31), 0.33 mm.
Description of Female
. Colour pattern similar to that of the males, but the head may present more extensive lighter areas. Forewing length 14.2 to 15.0 mm (n=5). The subgenital plate has only the median lobes (
Fig. 30
). St9 presents a somewhat rounded setal patch; the hind margin varies from broadly concave to broadly convex with narrow, dense setal fringe; posterior marginal sclerotization weak.
Egg (
Fig. 31
). Very long, 0.51–0.53 x
0.20–0.22 mm
, n=6.
Remarks
. The species was described from a single male from Campos do Jordão. Forewing length of the
holotype
is
10.6 mm
, while lengths of the examined males vary from 10.9 to 12.0 mm (n=6). New figures of the head and pronotum (
Fig. 26
), male hammer (
Fig. 27
) and penial armature (
Figs 28–29
) are presented.
Seven of
10 specimens
were collected during the day using a net or a beating sheet, one was caught in a Malaise trap, and one was reared from a nymph. The species is seemingly not attracted to lights. In PECJ it was collected from September to November.
