Diagnosis. Campsurus dasilvai sp. nov. is only known from male adults that can be characterized as follows: 1) posterior margin of male abdominal sternum IX truncate to slightly concave ( Fig. 56, 58 View FIGURES 51 – 59 ), sternum IX sculptured with 3 to 7 pointed microlepides ( Fig. 58 View FIGURES 51 – 59 ); 2) pedestals long and slender, well-developed, outer-posterior margin projected and forming a long parastylus with rounded apex (truncate and apically pointed in lateral view, Fig. 57 View FIGURES 51 – 59 ), inner margin also projected but shorter (ic in Fig. 56 View FIGURES 51 – 59 ); 3); penes separated and converging distally, each arm formed by a large dorsal sclerotized lobe with a wide base (ml in Fig 56 View FIGURES 51 – 59 ), and a relatively large ventral apically rounded membranous lobe (sl in Fig 56 View FIGURES 51 – 59 ), apex of main lobe of penes acutely pointed ( Fig. 57 View FIGURES 51 – 59 ); 4) small size (length of male fore wings 6.0– 6.5 mm).
