Oronoqua Fennah, 1947: 91 View in CoL .
TYPE SPECIES. — Oronoqua deina Fennah, 1947 , by original designation.
ETYMOLOGY. — From the river Oronoqua where the holotype of O. deina was collected.
DISTRIBUTION. — Guyana, French Guiana, Panama.
DIAGNOSIS. — Metope narrow, elongate, widest above clypeus, angularly concave apically, with only median keel which is indistinct above clypeus. Lateral margins of metope sharp, metopo-clypeal suture straight. Ocelli present. Rostrum reaching hind coxae. Pedicel globular, twice larger than scapus. Coryphe rectangular, clearly longer than wide, projecting in front of eyes of an equal length to the widest eye diameter ( Fig. 2C, F View FIG ). Disc of coryphe concave. Pronotum without keels. Scutellum with lateral keels. Fore wings ( Fig. 3A, B View FIG ) elongate, hyaline, without hypocostal lobe. Radius bifurcate, median bi- or trifurcate, cubitus anterior simple (R 2 M 2-3 CuA 1), with transverse veins on corium and clavus. Costal margin of hind wings weakly concave, with coupling lobe. The concavity between corium and vannus and the concavity separating anal lobe are distinct. Radius, first and second anal veins bifurcate, median and cubitus posterior simple, cubitus anterior trifurcate, postcubitus tetrafurcate, (R 2 M 1 CuA 3 CuP 1 Pcu 4 A 1 2 A 2 2). Cubitus anterior and cubitus posterior are close to each other, but not flattened. Transverse veins in distal part of the wings. Hind tibia with 2-4 lateral spines. First metatarsomere with 4 or 5 intermediate spines apically.
Female ( Fig. 4 View FIG ): sternum VII with widely and deeply concave hind margin. Female genitalia are the same in the two known Oronoqua species ( Fig. 4 View FIG ). Anal tube elongate, narrowing apically, with apical concavity ( Fig.4B View FIG ). Anal column long, 0.4 times as long as anal tube. Gonoplacs nearly rectangular, without keels ( Fig. 4A View FIG ). Posterior connective lamina of gonapophyses IX elongate ( Fig. 4E View FIG ). Distal parts of the lamina weakly turned to median line, each with subapical tooth. Lateral fields of the lamina in shape of short flattened semicircular processes. Median field of the lamina convex, with deep median incision ( Fig. 4E View FIG ). Gonocoxa VIII with almost straight hind margin ( Fig. 4D View FIG ). Endogonocoxal process trifurcate apically. Anterior connective lamina of gonapophysis VIII with wide plate bearing 3 large rounded teeth in apical group and 5 or 6 small teeth in lateral group ( Fig. 4C, D View FIG ).
SPECIES INCLUDED. — Oronoqua deina Fennah, 1947 and O. ibisca n. sp.
TAXONOMIC RELATIONSHIPS According to the narrow and angularly apically concave metope, Oronoqua is close to the genus Dracela Signoret, 1861 .
