( Fig. 6 View FIGURE 6 )

Non-type material. Strain NIG ( French Guiana): 54 males dissected .

Male terminalia. The median gonocoxites is slightly grooved and presents a divergent hypandrial bristle at the ends of each side ( Fig. 6A View FIGURE 6 ). The aedeagal apex is elongated and curved back ( Fig. 6B–D View FIGURE 6 ); it displays scales on the ventral portion and structures like long bristles along the apex ( Fig. 6E View FIGURE 6 ). The dorsal region of the aedeagus presents a protuberance, named aedeagal dorsal crest ( Fig. 6D View FIGURE 6 ). The aedeagal sheath is elongated, smooth and without serrated edge ( Fig. 6D View FIGURE 6 ). The ventral postgonites are thinner at the end, the middle portion of this structure is slightly serrated ( Fig. 6B–D View FIGURE 6 ). The aedeagal ventral processes are thin, bifurcated and they have the ends facing outwards ( Fig. 6B–D View FIGURE 6 ). Each pregonite displays two small bristles ( Fig. 6B–D View FIGURE 6 ).
