Figures 84–88 View FIGURE 84 View FIGURE 85 View FIGURE 86 View FIGURE 87 View FIGURE 88

Diagnosis. Vein MA with four main branches reaching wing margin ( Fig. 85 View FIGURE 85 ). Mesobasisternum anteriorly convex; lateral lobes anterolaterally and laterally convex and posteriorly straight, posterolaterally forming an angle of 90° ( Fig. 84E View FIGURE 84 ). Metabasisternum anteriorly convex; lateral lobes anterolaterally convex, laterally straight and posteriorly convex, posterolaterally forming an angle of 120° ( Fig. 84E View FIGURE 84 ). Apex of cercus with rectangular projection and lateral spine, both with narrow with a dark brown color ( Fig. 84K View FIGURE 84 ).

Description. Holotype Male.

Thorax. Mesobasisternum triangular, anteriorly convex; lateral lobes anterolaterally and laterally convex and posteriorly straight, posterolaterally forming an angle of 90° ( Fig. 84E View FIGURE 84 ). Metabasisternum triangular, anteriorly convex; lateral lobes anterolaterally convex, laterally straight and posteriorly convex, posterolaterally forming an angle of 120° ( Fig. 84E View FIGURE 84 ).

Wings. Vein MA with four main branches reaching wing margin ( Fig. 85 View FIGURE 85 ). Left stridulatory file curved; basal teeth smaller and more spaced apart ( Fig. 86A View FIGURE 86 ). Total file length of 3.2 mm, greater vein width of 0.5 mm and total of 49 teeth. Right stridulatory slightly sinuose; basal teeth smaller and more spaced apart ( Fig. 86B View FIGURE 86 ). Total length file of 3 mm, widest vein of 0.1 mm and total of 52 teeth.

Legs. Hind femur with expanded region equivalent to 1/2 of the total femur length ( Fig. 84H View FIGURE 84 ).

Abdomen. Cercus slightly curved inwards, with the apex expanded ( Figs. 84I–K View FIGURE 84 ).Apex of cercus with rectangular projection and lateral spine, both with narrow with a dark brown color ( Fig. 84K View FIGURE 84 ). Stylus small and rectangular ( Fig. 84I View FIGURE 84 ).

Internal male genitalia. Ejaculatory vesicles small and reniform ( Figs. 87A–D View FIGURE 87 ). Upper folds of ventral lobe small, bilobed and not connected ( Figs. 87A–B View FIGURE 87 ). Titillator process trapezoidal ( Figs. 87A–D View FIGURE 87 ). Lower folds of ventral lobe large, posteriorly straight and exceeding the dorsal lobe ( Figs. 87A–B View FIGURE 87 ). Dorsal lobes anteriorly with triangular projection, laterally slightly convex and posteriorly triangular ( Figs. 87A–D View FIGURE 87 ). Dorsal folds elongated, wide and with rounded apex ( Figs. 87C–D View FIGURE 87 ).

Coloration. Based on photos of preserved specimen ( Fig. 84 View FIGURE 84 ). Body yellowish-brown with greenish regions. Eyes brown.

Female. Unknown.

Etymology. The epithet is in apposition, caete (ka’a + eté) comes from the Brazilian indigenous language Nheengatu and means “primary forest”, referring to the natural habitat of the species.

Distribution. Brazil: Amazonas ( Fig. 88 View FIGURE 88 ).
