Paraphrissopoda (Euboettcheria) nicasia Lopes, 1941: 375 View in CoL . Jamaica, Mona. Holotype male, in BMNH (not examined).

Description. Male. Head. Ocellar setae stronger than postoculars. Outer vertical seta of same size as postoculars. Black orbital setae. Four 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), supra-alars = 1 + 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. Antero-dorsal surface of mid tibia with 1 median and 1 apical seta. Hind femur with 1 row of setae on ventral surface. 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 grey. ST1+3 with only black hair-like setae. Three lateral setae on each side of T4. T5 with grey microtrichosity.

Terminalia. ST5 orange. Medial margin of ST5 ∩-shaped. Inner margins of ST5 arms straight with acute apophyses anteriorly, with long hair-like setae uniformly distributed, not forming patches. Syntergosternite 7+8 longer than high in lateral view, orange, with grey microtrichosity. Epandrium bright orange. Cercus orange proximally and brown or dark brown distally. Dorsal margin of cercus curved in lateral view, with a dorsal preapical projection with short, robust setae with the true (ventral) apex smooth without setae. Cercus with both spines and hair-like setae dorsally. Surstylus dark brown, finger-shaped with anterior margin slightly projected towards the anterior body region, with a rounded apex. Pregonite tongue-shaped with a rounded apex. Postgonite elongated, without a hooked apex. Basi- and distiphallus connected by a desclerotized strip. Distiphallus considerably longer than cercus. 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. Distiphallus with a pair of lateral styli separated, each with a longitudinal cleft. Short vesica composed of one entire plate without demarcated connection with the distiphallus.

Distribution. NEOTROPICAL— Jamaica.
