Loneura orucapu View in CoL n. sp.

(Figs 88–99)

Diagnosis. Related to L. misak , differing from it in having the posterior processes of the hypandrium more slender and more directed postero-laterally, and in having the mesal processes of the hypandrium stout and distally truncate (Fig. 91). Also, the endophallic sclerites are distinctly different in both species (Fig. 93).

Male. Color. Body pale brown. Head pattern (Fig. 90), vertex light brown; front with brown spots; an ochre transverse band between the inner border of each compound eye below the lower edge of the ocellar triangle to the epistomal sulcus; a cream diagonal band from the inner border of each compound eye to the epistomal sulcus at the level of the antennal fossae. Compound eyes black, ocelli hyaline with ochre centripetal crescents. Labrum, anteclypeus, postclypeus and mandibles dark brown. Genae dark brown. Postgenae light brown.Antennae: scape brown, pedicel and flagella pale brown, flagellomeres 1–6 with apices cream. Maxillary palps brown, Mx1 light brown. Tergal lobes of meso- and metathorax dark brown, with light brown edges. Thoracic pleura light brown with large dark brown areas. Legs: coxae with small ochre spots basally, fore- coxae, trochanters and femora brown; coxae,

trochanters and femora of mid- and hindlegs light brown; femora with two brown spots; tibiae and tarsi brown. Wings hyaline (Figs 88–89). Forewing pterostigma hyaline, with proximal and distal brown bands; a pale brown submarginal band from R4+5 to areola postica, a slender brown band from Cu1 to distal end of 1A; veins with a brown spot at wing margin. Hindwings with brown spots distally on veins. Abdomen light brown, with subcuticular ochre bands on tergum; sternum with ochre subcuticular spots. Clunium pale brown. Hypandrium dark brown. Epiproct and paraprocts light brown.

Morphology. Head (Fig. 90): H/MxW: 1.45; H/d: 3.75; IO/MxW: 0.76. Vertex slightly above the level of the upper border of the compound eyes. Outer cusp of lacinial tips broad, with five–six short denticles. Mx4/Mx2: 1.22. Forewings (Fig. 88): L/W: 2.57. Pterostigma: lp/wp: 4.49, areola postica tall, wide, apically rounded: la/ha: 1.62, R4+5 sinuous, M five-branched, M3 and M5 forked. Hindwings (Fig. 89): l/w: 2.89; M three-branched. Hypandrium (Fig. 91), posterior processes distally slender, directed postero-laterally, meso- anterior processes stout, elongate, distally truncate; phallosome Y-shaped anteriorly, side struts slender; external parameres laminar, sclerotized laterally, apex rounded, bearing pores and short teeth on lateral margin (Fig. 93); two pairs of endophallic sclerites, anterior and lateral pair fused, laminar and strongly curved outwards; mesal pair proximally wide, with anterior processes laminar, mesal sclerite processes distally curved outward, with anteapical internal tooth. Paraprocts (Fig. 92) oval, with distal setal field and macrosetae as illustrated; sensory fields with 22–23 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Epiproct (Fig. 92) semioval, with short and long setae, two lateral macrosetae, a setal field on posterior border and a posterior field of microspicules.
