Diagnosis.
The male of
M. vicana
is similar to those of the species within the
vicana
species-group, especially those of
M. silvae
,
M. fonsecai
and
M. pereirae
for having no mastidia, a bump on the retrolateral, proximal portion of palpal tibia, and the prolateral portion of tegulum (embolus base) strongly asymmetrical proximally when compared to retrolateral portion. It can be distinguished from those of
M. fonsecai
and
M. silvae
for not having a bifid embolus tip, and from
M. pereirae
for having the embolus tip more slender (
Figs 32
,
44
).
