The Paradelia intersecta View in CoL infrasection
The present infrasection includes all species of the Paradelia intersecta subsection less P. palpata and two species ( P. trigonaloides Griffiths , P. ogilviensis Griffiths ) endemic to North America. The monophyly of the Paradelia intersecta infrasection is well supported by the unique structure of the male sternite V in which the setose apex of posterior lobes (e.g., Fig. 35 View FIGURES 34 – 38 ) is modified as an inward-pointing, digitiform appendage more or less concealed ventrally by distal part of bare angular lamella (e.g., Figs. 40 View FIGURES 39 – 44 , 47 View FIGURES 46 – 49 , 70 View FIGURES 69 – 74 ). The digitiform appendages bear strong setulae and have a basal articulation point that allows passive movements. The only exception is the following species, P. uleforsi in which the digitiform appendages ( Figs. 39, 40 View FIGURES 39 – 44 ) are short, nonarticulated and with fine setulae confined to apical part. The infrasection is also characterized by the pregonite (e.g., Fig. 41 View FIGURES 39 – 44 ) with a single, apical setula.
