Adelopsis linaresi Szymczakowski, 1969: 407 View in CoL [and Figs. 1–10 View FIGURES 1–3 View FIGURES 4–16 ].
Adelopsis brunneus linaresi View in CoL ; Szymczakowski, 1975: 15 [and Fig. 1 View FIGURES 1–3 ] (lowered to subspecies status).
Adelopsis brunnea linaresi View in CoL ; Gnaspini, 1996: 539 (spelling corrected to feminine gender).
Holotype male in MUCV, not examined.
Length: 2.4 mm (holotype male) and 2.4–2.5 mm (2 female paratypes) (original description).
Type locality: Cueva del Guacharo, Gran Derrumbe, 1065 m, Caripe, [Monagas State], Venezuela. Distribution. Venezuela: Monagas State: known only from type locality (original description; Szymczakowski, 1975).
Taxonomic Remarks.
1) As proposed in Gnaspini (1996: 539) and Peck et al. (1998: 62), all subspecies of A. brunnea Jeannel 1936 are here raised to species status. The combination of the variation observed on aedeagus, genital segment, eyes, antenna, male mesotibia, and spermatheca allow taxon recognition (see discussion under each of these taxa).
Based on the original illustration, the aedeagus of this subspecies ( Fig. 8 View FIGURES 4–16 in Szymczakowski, 1969) differs from that of other species in group ascutellaris, especially by having a ‘high’ apical portion of the right lobe, with a sinuate apical margin; and the profemur seems unique ( Fig. 9 View FIGURES 4–16 in Szymczakowski, 1969). Therefore, we here reassign the status of species for this taxon.
2) This species is tentatively assigned to subgroup, since the genital segment (which is here considered important for subgroup assignment) is unknown.
