Hebetingis adeia Drake 1960

Material examined: 1M, New Guinea, NE, Mt. Kaindi, 2350m, 14.IX.1967, on Evodia (Rutaceae), J.L. Gressitt, BPBM. Length, 4.50; width, 2.17 (at opposite humeri, 1.33); I: 0.27; II: 0.17; III: 1.57; IV: 0.60.

Comments: This specimen is very similar to the holotype, the only specimen known until now; however, the bucculae are almost meeting in front, the labium extends to the middle of the metasternum (not almost reaching base of metasternum), the subcostal area is triseriate, not biseriate, and the third antennal segment is much shorter (1.57, while 2.94 in the type). On the basis of these two specimens, it is difficult to known if the differences observed represent character states of two distinct species or polymorphic characters of the same species. On the basis of such arguments, this specimen cannot be considered as a new species. Hebetingis adeia is endemic to New Guinea.
