Malar space/eye height 0.11-0.19. Face height/width 0.8-0.9. Clypeus height/width 0.6-0.7. Clypeus convex, granulate. Sculpture of head shiny granular-coriaceous. Face transversely rugose-striate, medially granular-coriaceous below crest.
Antenna. Antennal segments 58-67. Antenna/body length 1.1-1.2. Scape/pedicel length 2.3-2.9. Length of first/second flagellomere 1.0-1.2. Fourth flagellomere length/apical width 1.1-1.3. Tip of apical segment of antenna pointed.
Mesosoma. Length/height 1.47-1.51. Width of mesoscutum/width of head 0.7-0.8. Mesoscutum length/width 1.0-1.2. Pronotal collar/vertex 0.5-0.7. Prescutellar sulcus with 3-5 distinct carinae. Mesoscutum posterior border with distinct complete carina. Metanotum with mid-longitudinal carina complete, connecting to a carinate pit posteriorly. Metanotum mid-pit present, delimited by carinae. Mid-longitudinal carina of propodeum complete, or nearly complete. Ventral mid-line of mesopleuron without sulcus anteriorly, shallow smooth sulcus present posteriorly; pit at ventral mid-line absent. Notauli weakly indicated anteriorly, indistinctly crenulate. Sternaulus absent. Sculpture of mesosoma mostly granulate. Pronotum rugose laterally, granulate ventrally, pronotal groove crenulate anteriorly, short subventral longitudinal carina present. Mesopleuron mostly rugose. Subalar groove sparsely crenulate. Mid-posterior region of mesoscutum rugose, with irregularly carinate notauli. Mesoscutellar trough entirely costate. Metanotum mostly smooth, with one or two pairs of lateral carinae. Propodeum mostly granulate, rugose posteriorly.
Wings. Fore wing: Stigma length/height 3.6-3.8. Vein r/2RS 1.3-1.6. Vein r/RS+Mb 1.4-1.7. Vein 3RSa/2RS 1.1-1.3. Vein 3RSa/2M 0.76-0.85. Vein 3RSa/3RSb 0.24-0.29. Vein 1CUa/1CUb 0.45-0.60. Vein 1CUa/2CUa 0.9-1.1. Vein 1cu-a vertical. Vein 1M weakly curved basally, or nearly straight. Vein RS+Ma virtually straight. Vein M+CU weakly sinuate. Vein 1-1A strongly sinuate. Vein 1-1A distinctly changing thickness along apical half. Vein 1a absent. Second submarginal cell short and trapezoidal. Subbasal cell glabrous, with a narrow patch of setae subapically just below vein 1CUa. Basal cell with more or less large glabrous region posteriorly, sometimes with sparse setae; costal and apical regions evenly setose. Hind wing: Vein RS bent at basal 0.3, with vein r present. Marginal cell narrowest at base. Vein M+CU/1M 1.3-1.6. Vein M+CU/r-m 1.2-1.4. Vein m-cu present, partly tubular. Vein m-cu position relative to vein r-m interstitial, or antefurcal. Vein 2-1A absent. Basal cell sparsely setose, bare posteriorly.
Hind legs. Femur length/width 4.5-5.0. Length of tibia/tarsi 0.9-1.0. Length of basitarsus/tarsi 2-4 0.7-0.8. Sculpture of hind coxa dorsally mostly shiny granular-coriaceous, finely striate apically. Tarsal claws not pectinate.
Metasoma. T1 length/apical width 1.0-1.2. T2 length/apical width 0.6-0.8. T3 length/apical width 0.5-0.7. Mid-longitudinal carina extending until basal 0.5 or 0.7 of T3. Metasoma sculpture T1 rugose, T2 and most of T3 striate-rugose, sculpture weaker at T3, remainder terga granular-coriaceous. Ovipositor sheath/hind basitarsus 0.36-0.56. Apex of ovipositor sheaths truncate; apical point very short, not distinctly visible in some paratypes.
Color. Brownish yellow or pale honey yellow. Antenna dark brown basally, gradually lightening toward brown or brownish yellow apex. Legs with same color as body, rarely hind femur mostly dark brown. Wings tinged brown, stigma and most veins light brown; fore wing veins 1M, 1CU, apex of 1-1A, 2CUb medially, r, and veins of second submarginal cell dark brown. Ovipositor sheaths dark brown.
Male. The only male paratype is very similar to the females with dark brown hind femur. Body length 7.8 mm; fore wing length 6.7 mm; antenna with 44 antennomeres.
Diagnosis.
Aleiodes barrosi is similar to A. joaquimi in that both species have the first subdiscal cell relatively long and widening apically (Figs 27 View Figures 25–28 , 28 View Figures 25–28 ), and both have the vein 1CUb 1.7-2.1 × longer than 1CUa (0.9-1.3 × in other species). These two species are easily separated by the mainly yellow body color in A. barrosi (deep reddish brown in A. joaquimi ), yellow palpi and tegula (dark brown in A. joaquimi ), and entirely yellow tibia and tarsi (tibia basally and tarsi 1-4 white in A. joaquimi ). Additionally, the hind wing vein 2-1A is absent in A. barrosi (Fig. 28 View Figures 25–28 ), but present in A. joaquimi (Fig. 58 View Figures 55–58 ).
Distribution.
Known from localities in Brazil, Costa Rica, and Peru.
Etymology.
The name is a patronym for Marina Moraes Barros Lutz, one of the collectors of the holotype specimen.
