Description. FEMALE, holotype. Total body length 615 (595–665 in 5 paratypes). Gnathosoma . Infracapitulum punctate. Each medial branch of peritremes with 1 chamber, each lateral branch with 5–6 chambers ( Fig. 5A View FIGURE 5 A – F ). Stylophore 135 (135–140) long. Idiosoma . Propodonotal shield divided into 3 narrow, sparsely punctate sclerites: pair of lateral, bearing bases of setae ve and si, and narrow central sclerite with anterior margin reaching level of setae si. Length ratio of setae ve: si: se 1:2.2–2.6:4.6–5.1. Hysteronotal shield well developed, fused with pygidial shield, punctate in posterior part. Setae d1 and e2 subequal in length, situated near hysteronotal shield. Length ratio of setae f1: f2 1:5.1–6. Setae h1 and f1 subequal in length. Length ratio of setae ag1: ag2: ag3 2.5–2.9:1:3–3.4. Coxal fields of legs I–IV densely punctate. Setae 3c 3.3 times longer than 3b. Cuticular striations as in figs. 4A, B. Legs. Setae tc” of legs III–IV twice as long as tc’III–IV. Fan-like setae of legs III and IV with 15–17 tines ( Fig. 5B View FIGURE 5 A – F ). Solenidia of legs I as in fig. 5C. Lengths of setae: ve 40 (35–45), si 90 (90–115), se 185 (185–205), c1 210 (195–225), c2 (180–225), d1 185 (170–185), d2 195 (195–205), e2 150 (150–175), f1 25 (15–30), f2 150 (140–155), h1 25 (20–35), h2 280 ag1 100 (90–105), ag2 40 (40–50), ag3 130 (130–145), 3b 25 (25–30), 3c 75 (65–85).
MALE (2 paratypes).Total body length 430–445. Gnathosoma . Each medial branch of peritremes with 2 chambers, each lateral branch with 4–5 chambers ( Fig. 5D View FIGURE 5 A – F ). Stylophore 115 long. Idiosoma . Propodonotal shield well developed, punctate, bearing setae vi, si and c1. Length ratio of ve: si: se 1:1.2–1.6:2.8–3.6. Hysteronotal shield weakly sclerotised, divided longitudinally, apunctate. Setae h2 7 times longer than f2. Setae ag1 2.8–3.5 times longer than ag2. Coxal fields of legs I–IV apunctate. Lengths of setae: ve 30–40, si 50–60, se 100–110, c1 90–105, c2 80–100, d1 20, d2 50–70, e 2 15 –30, f2 25, h2 175, ag1 55–70, ag 2 20–30.
Type material. Female holotype, 6 female and 2 male paratypes from Ducula luctuosa (Temminick) (Columbidae) ; INDONESIA: Sulawesi Island, coll. Rvedel.
Type material deposition. All material is deposited in the AMU (Reg. No. AMU-SYR.503), except 1 female paratype in the ZSM (Reg. No. ZSM- 20112052) and 1 female paratype in the ZISP (Reg. No. ZISP-AVB011-2908- 025).
Additional material. Two females and 1 male from Ducula spilorrhoa (Gray) (Columbidae) , PAPUA NEW GUINEA: 17 March 1911, coll. Wiedenfeld (deposited in the AMU (Reg. No. AMU-SYR.504)). Eight females from Ptilinopus jambu Gmelin (Columbidae) , INDONESIA: Sumatra, Lampung Province, 1908, coll. Elbert (deposited in the AMU (Reg. No. AMU-SYR.505), except 1 female in the ZSM (Reg. No. ZSM- 20112053) and 1 female in the ZISP (ZISP-AVB 011-2908-026). Five females from Ptilinopus melanospilus Salvadori (Columbidae) , INDONESIA: West Java, Bogor, Cisaura, Tugu Selatan, Mount Gede Pangrango National Park, Gede Mt., 2 June 1909, coll. Primavesi (deposited in the AMU (Reg. No. AMU-SYR.506)). Six females from Ptilinopus porphyreus Temminck (Columbidae) , INDONESIA: Java, no other data (deposited in the AMU (Reg. No. AMU-SYR.507), except 1 female in the ZSM (Reg. No. ZSM 20112054) and 1 female in the ZISP (Reg. No. ZISP-AVB011-2908-027)). Three females from Ptilinopus regina Swainson (Columbidae) , INDONESIA: Mariana Islands, no other data (deposited in the AMU (Reg. No. AMU-SYR.508)).
Differential diagnosis. Peristerophila lature is similar to P. columbae (Hirst) known from Columba livia Gmelin and Zenaida auriculata ( De Murs) ( Columbiformes : Culumbidae) ( Kethley 1970; Skoracki 2011). In females of both species, the number of chambers in medial and lateral branches of the peritremes are similar; the hysteronotal shield is fused to the pygidial shield; setae d2 and e2 are unequal in length. This new species differs from P. c o l u m ba e by the following features: in females of P. lature , the length ratio of setae ve: si: se is 1:2.2–2.6:4.6–5.1; the pygidial shield is punctate in the posterior part. In females of P. columbae , the length ratio of setae ve:si:se 1:1.5:9.5; the pygidial shield is apunctate in the posterior part.
Etymology. The specific ephitet “ lature ” is adapted from the name of the Indonesian god of the abyss—Lature.
