Schizoptera (Odontorhagus) trinitatis Emsley 1969: 25, 65 (orig. descr.)

Diagnosis. Distinguished among species of Schizoptera (Odontorhagus) by the relatively small body size, ovoid body shape, the distinctly curving M2 vein, the small process of the posterior margin of stVI, and the blade-like process of the subgenital plate.

Holotype: TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO: Arima: William Beebe Tropical Research Station (Simla), 10.68361 ° N 61.28333 ° W, 0 4 Jul 1961, Emsley, M. G., light trap, 1Ƌ (AMNH _IZC 00150342) (AMNH) .

SURFACE AND VESTITURE: as in subgeneric description. STRUCTURE: HEAD: slightly rounded in dorsal view (Fig. 4); eyes about 2/3 as wide as synthlipsis. THORAX: as in subgeneric description; hemelytron as in subgeneric description; M2 vein distinctly curving anteriorly toward wing margin; anterior membranal cell wedge-shaped. ABDOMEN: as in subgeneric description; stVI with a small rounded process on posterior margin; subgenital plate distinctly asymmetrical; process of subgenital elongate and blade-shaped.

Distribution. Known only from the type locality (Fig. 7).

Discussion. No additional specimens examined matched the description of this species or the holotype. Only slide mount type images were available (Fig. 4). For an excellent illustration of the subgenital plate of this species see Emsley (1969) Figure 248.
