Type species: Psallofulvius dryander sp. nov. by original designation.
Diagnosis. Head more or less prognathous, as long as high in lateral view ( Figs 2G View FIGURE 2 , 4I View FIGURE 4 ); macropterous, hemelytron elongate, its lateral margins almost parallel ( Fig. 1A View FIGURE 1 ), claval commissure 1.5–2 times as long as scutellum ( Figs 1A View FIGURE 1 , 2J View FIGURE 2 , 4E View FIGURE 4 ); antennal fossa placed near suture (not above) between mandibular and maxillary plates; eye reaching ventral margin of head, adjacent to pronotum and covering its anterolateral margin; buccula reaching eye ( Figs 2G View FIGURE 2 , 4I View FIGURE 4 ); labium reaching at least middle of abdomen; vertex not carinate (2D, 4B); lateral margin of pronotum not carinate ( Figs 2G View FIGURE 2 , 4I View FIGURE 4 ); antenna shorter than body; collar flattened, separated by fine line; calli flat, obsolete ( Figs 2D View FIGURE 2 , 4B View FIGURE 4 ); body impunctate, clothed in simple setae only, microsetae are hair-like, not modified; metathoracic scent gland evaporative area triangular, almost reaching base of hind coxa ( Figs 2L View FIGURE 2 , 4K View FIGURE 4 ); labial segments I, II and IV subdivided ( Figs 2B, E, I, N View FIGURE 2 , 4C, G, H View FIGURE 4 ); forefemora not modified ( Figs 2O View FIGURE 2 ); cuneus delimited with distinct fracture, only slightly longer than wide at base ( Figs 2K View FIGURE 2 , 4F View FIGURE 4 ); segments of hind tarsus either subequal in length, or segment I slightly shorter than segments II and III each ( Figs 2F View FIGURE 2 , 4D View FIGURE 4 ).
Description. Coloration. Body mostly brown with dark brown or whitish brown to pale brown markings ( Fig 1 View FIGURE 1 ). Surface and vestiture. Body mostly smooth or slightly shiny, without punctures or rugosity. Body clothed mostly with adpressed and suberect pale setae, mostly longer than tibia width; setae on pleura and legs adpressed and shorter than tibia width ( Figs 2D, J, L View FIGURE 2 , 4B, E, K View FIGURE 4 ). Structure and measurements. Body elongate ( Fig. 1A View FIGURE 1 ). Head. Horizontal, dorsally as long as wide, vertex not carinate, not covering anteromedial margin of pronotum posteriorly; eye not protruding laterally ( Figs 2D View FIGURE 2 , 4B View FIGURE 4 ); in anterior view head wider than high, base of clypeus placed above ventral margin of eye and antennal fossa, antennal fossa placed above ventral margin of eye, but below eye’s middle line ( Figs 2A View FIGURE 2 , 4A View FIGURE 4 ); in lateral view head as long as or slightly longer than high, base of clypeus not delimited with depression, buccula reaching eye, distance between buccula and pronotum as long as or longer than buccula length; eye large, extending to ventral margin of head; eye slightly covering anterolateral margin of pronotum; antennal fossa adjacent to eye and placed close to suture between mandibular and maxillary plates ( Figs 2G View FIGURE 2 , 4I View FIGURE 4 ); antenna shorter than body, antennal segment I not widened, distinctly shorter than head width; segment II cylindrical, as wide as segment I, longer than head width, segment III slightly thinner than segment II; segment IV as long as segment III ( Figs 2D, H View FIGURE 2 , 4B, L View FIGURE 4 ); labium reaching abdominal segments VI–IX; labial segment I surpassing base of forecoxa, distinctly subdivided in apical half ( Figs 2I View FIGURE 2 , 4G View FIGURE 4 ); segment II slightly longer than segment I, distinctly subdivided subapically, its apical part 2–3× as long as wide ( Fig. 2B, E View FIGURE 2 , 4C View FIGURE 4 ); segment III as long as or slightly shorter than segment II, more than 10× as long as wide; segment IV subequal to 1/2–2/3 of segment III, subdivided ( Figs 2N View FIGURE 2 , 4H View FIGURE 4 ). Thorax. Collar flattened, delimited dorsally by a fine line; calli indistinct; posterior margin of pronotum weakly concave ( Figs 2D View FIGURE 2 , 4B View FIGURE 4 ), lateral margins not carinate ( Figs 2G View FIGURE 2 , 4I View FIGURE 4 ), propleural suture T-shaped ( Figs 2G View FIGURE 2 , 4I View FIGURE 4 ); mesoscutum distinctly exposed, scutellum flat ( Figs 2J View FIGURE 2 , 4E View FIGURE 4 ); mesepimeral apodeme slit-like; mesepimeral spiracle open, slit-like, with distinct microsculpture along anterior margin dorsally; metathoracic scent gland evaporative area triangular, its dorsal margin concave, peritreme slightly upraised, rounded, metepimeron narrow ( Figs 2L View FIGURE 2 , 4K View FIGURE 4 ). Hemelytron. Claval commissure 1.5–2 times as long as scutellum; corial fracture almost reaching middle of corium or slightly surpassing it; embolium distinctly delimited in basal 2/3; cuneus delimited with distinct fracture, not notched; membrane with two cells, forming right angle, distance between cell and membrane apex longer than cell length ( Figs 2J, K View FIGURE 2 , 4E, F View FIGURE 4 ). Legs. Forecoxa shorter than pronotum length, subequal to middle and hind coxae in length and width; forefemur 4× as long as wide, as wide as and as long as middle femur; hind femur twice as wide as and slightly longer than forefemur ( Figs 2M, O View FIGURE 2 , 4M View FIGURE 4 ); tarsus three-segmented, segments subequal in length or segment I slightly shorter than segment II ( Figs 2F View FIGURE 2 , 4D View FIGURE 4 ); pretarsal claws with apical tooth, parempodia setiform ( Figs 2C View FIGURE 2 , 4J View FIGURE 4 ). Male genitalia. Genital capsule distinctly tapering posteriorly ( Figs 3F View FIGURE 3 , 6C View FIGURE 6 ), right paramere widened basally, its apical part slightly curved ( Figs. 3D View FIGURE 3 , 5D View FIGURE 5 ), ductus seminis as long as phallotheca, mostly coiled, its apical part narrowly sclerotized around secondary gonopore; endosoma not subdivided into vesica and conjunctiva ( Figs 3A–C View FIGURE 3 , 5A, B View FIGURE 5 ). Female genitalia. See description of P. dryander .
Etymology. The genus name represents the combination of generic names “ Psallops ” and “ Fulvius ”, referring to how the described taxon bears characters associated with both of these genera.
