Etymology This species is named after Dwight M. DeLong, author of 86 valid genera and 833 species of Deltocephalinae . Type material Holotype ♂ , CAMEROON , Southwest , nr. Korup National Park , at bridge, 05°03’02.1” N – 08°56’41.0” E , 15-30 Mar. 2009 , J.R. Cryan & G.J. Svenson , #8, coll. INHS . Description SIZE. ♂ 9.1 mm . COLOR. General color reddish-brown. BODY. Head slightly wider than pronotum. Crown broad; slightly longer medially than next to eye; about 4 x wider than width of eye; texture glabrous with longitudinal striae; depressed preapically; with 8 more or less well defined black maculae. Anterior margin of head with 3 distinct carinae. Ocelli on anterior margin of head; about 2 x their own diameter from adjacent eye. Face light brown; broad. Frontoclypeus shagreen; distinctly broadening dorsally. Clypellus widening apically; somewhat ovoid. Lorum large. Gena wide; with long fine erect seta laterad and distant from frontoclypeal suture. Antennal sockets large; near upper corners of eyes. Antennal ledges distinctly carinate. Antennae somewhat long, about as long as width of head. Pronotum carinate laterally; lateral margin about as long as width of eye; with ~10 more or less well defined black maculae in a fluctuate transverse line near anterior margin. Forewing with numerous short fine hairs on veins and wing surface; apices folded over, forming pointed apex; medial part of wing apex texture delicate; costal margin whitish, with small black spots near apex; with 1 or 2 crossveins between A1 and claval suture; with A1-A2 crossvein. Profemur row AM with AM1 and 2 or 3 more proximal macrosetae; intercalary row with fine setae apically, apparently with larger setae basally, basal setae continuous with row AV setae, generally in one row but with a few scattered setae; row AV setae long; dorsally with 2 apical and 4-5 more proximal macrosetae. Protibia rounded dorsally; macrosetae 1+7 (or so). Mesofemur row AV with ~10 short setae. Mesotibia dorsal setae ~5+7. Metafemur apical setae 2+2+1. Metatibia row PV macrosetae thick with 1-2 slightly smaller lighter setae between; dorsal surface with supernumerary short stout setae between rows AD and PD; pecten setae nearly equal in length. Metatarsomere I pecten setae with 6 platellae; PV seta platellate. MALE. Pygofer incised dorsally nearly 2/3 its length; without macrosetae; produced caudoventrally; sharply pointed at apex. Subgenital plate triangular; with scattered macrosetae laterally. Connective broadly Y -shaped; stem very short. Style slender; preapical lobe evident in lateral view; apophysis digitate, turned slightly medially at apex, ventral side with rough texture and subapical small tooth. Aedeagus with pair of long falcate apical processes directed ventrally ( holotype with one of these processes broken at base and directed anteriorly). Segment X long; sclerotized laterally and dorsally, and ventrally near apex.
