Differential diagnosis.
O. habashanensis
resembles
O. huaphanensis
in general appearance, but
O. habashanensis
has relatively smaller eyes. Whole scutellum of
O. habashanensis
is dark brown to black unlike yellow to brown scutellum of
O. huaphanensis
. The phallus of
O. habashanensis
is very flat basally and characteristically curved in apical part in contrast to generally more robust appearance of phalli of other species (
Figs. 25–32
).
Description.
Male. Body ~
12 mm
, elongate, 4.5 times longer than width at humeri. Body dark brown, entire elytra ochreous, pronotum ochreous at margins, darker in middle. Whole body covered with short fine pubescence. Head small with hemispherically prominent eyes, their frontal distance 1.26 times their maximum diameter. Antennomeres 3–10 flabellate (
Fig. 16
), apical antennomere slender, lanceolate. Pronotum flat, trapezoidal, 1.3 times wider at posterior angles than long at midline; with carinae forming seven areolae, lateral carinae very weak (
Fig. 8
). Elytra slender, parallel-sided, 4.0 times longer than wide at humeri with four strong primary costae and five weakly developed, often interrupted secondary costae (
Fig. 22
); elytral cells mostly rectangular. Male genitalia flat basally, wider in middle part; apical part very slender, curved, thorns of internal sac small, apically placed, basal sclerotized lamellae present (
Figs. 25–26
).
