Peckia bifurcata Dodge, 1965a: 487 View in CoL . Bahamas, New Providence. Holotype male, in USNM (not examined).

Description. Male. Head. Ocellar setae equal to or shorter than postoculars. Outer vertical seta of same size as postoculars. Black orbital setae. Three frontal setae situated below the dorsal limit of the lunule. Genal setae black anteriorly, yellow or white posteriorly. First two rows of occipital setae black, others yellow. Thorax. Chaetotaxy: acrostichals = 0 + 1, dorsocentrals = 0 + 3 (anterior one shorter), intra-alars = 1 + 2 (anterior one shorter), supraalars = 2 + 3, basal scutellars = 4. Prosternum and posterior surface of hind coxa with black setae. Three katepisternal setae. Postalar wall with only black setae. Lower calypter with a central dark spot and a fringe of long hair-like setae along outer margin, extending almost to its posterior margin. Mid femur with a ctenidium. Anterodorsal surface of mid tibia with 2 medial setae and 1 apical seta. Hind femur with a row of antero-ventral and a row of postero-ventral setae. Hind tibia antero-dorsally with 1 seta in the basal third, 1 in the middle third and 1 preapical. Abdomen. Postero-ventral seams between T3/T4 and T4/T5 parallel. Microtrichosity of the abdomen laterally golden. ST1+3 with only black hair-like setae. Two lateral setae on each side of T4. T5 with golden microtrichosity. Terminalia. ST5 orange. Medial margin of ST5 ∏-shaped. Inner margins of ST5 arms straight with acute apophyses anteriorly. Syntergosternite 7+8 longer than high in lateral view, orange, with golden microtrichosity. Epandrium bright orange. Cercus orange proximally and brown or dark brown distally. Cercus with a pair of proximal rounded projections. Cercus in lateral view with distal part abruptly set off from proximal part as a dorsal preapical projection with short, robust setae with the true (ventral) apex smooth without spines. Surstylus orange, finger-shaped with anterior margin slightly projected towards the anterior body region, with a rounded apex. Pregonite tongue-shaped, curved in lateral view, and an undulated apex. Pregonite with the apical inner corner not elongated and projected into a small rounded lobe, both corners almost at the same level. Postgonite elongated, with a hooked apex. Basi- and distiphallus connected by a desclerotized strip. Juxta without demarcated connection with the phallic tube. Juxta sclerotized and composed of one long plate without juxtal lateral plate and juxtal horns. Juxta with the lateral edges folded ventrally, resembling an equibroad tube with a dorsal protuberance near apex, with the opening directed forward. Distiphallus with a pair of lateral styli separated, each with a longitudinal cleft. Proximal section of the phallic tube not very elongated, with the vesica at mid length of the phallic tube. Short vesica composed of one entire plate without demarcated connection with the distiphallus.

Distribution. NEOTROPICAL— Bahamas (New Providence).
