Type species
Ectopusia additivaneura ( Carles-Tolrá, 2009) View in CoL gen. et comb. nov. by monotypy.
Diagnosis
Easily distinguished from all other genera in Usiini by the presence of an extra crossvein between veins R 2+3 and R 4. Of the species with poorly sclerotised genital fork and unpigmented vaginal plate, Ectopusia gen. nov. is the only one with widely separated eyes in the male.
Etymology
‘Ectopo-’ Greek, ‘out of place’, and genus Usia . Refers to the unusual features that put this species outside the typical ‘ Parageron ’- type.
