Diagnosis

Apex of basiflagellomere and distiflagellomere darker, the latter without a pale band. Pedicel with abundant erect setae, equal to or longer than diameter of segment. Labium extending to mesocoxae. Membrane without an apical corial spot. Metafemur with a subapical dark band. Pygophore apex pointed dorsally in lateral view.

Heraeus plebejus , together with H. pulchellus and H. pacificus , are the only species in the group that lack a pale band on distiflagellomere (although in some specimens of H. pulchellus a narrow pale band is apparent). Heraeus plebejus and H. pulchellus have pale brown to brown antennae, with the apex of basiflagellomere and distiflagellomere darker, and the ocelli are placed at the level of an imaginary line passing the posteri- or border of the eyes, whereas in H. pacificus the antenna is uniformly coloured dark brown and the ocelli are placed posterior of an imaginary line passing the posterior border of the eyes. Heraeus plebejus can be distinguished from H. pulchellus based mainly on body size ( H. plebejus over 5.25 mm long and H. pulchellus less than 5 mm long) and characters of the male genitalia.

Redescription ( Fig. 36 View Figure 36 H)

Head: Coriaceous. Eyes not surpassing the dorsal margin of head in lateral view. Ocelli at level of an imaginary line passing the posterior border of eyes. Labium extending to mesocoxae. Antennae pale brown to brown, with the apex of basiflagellomere and distiflagellomere darker. Distiflagellomere without a pale band. Pedicel with abundant erect setae, equal to or longer than diameter of segment.

Thorax: Posterior pronotal lobe with pale spots and with a pale spot on humeral angles. Anterior pronotal lobe with long erect setae. Scutellum with erect setae. Evaporative area extended. Inner corial spot diffuse. Costal margin pale on proximal three-quarters, with a subapical corial spot. Membrane brown, with veins paler. Legs: Profemur dark, at most with apices paler and long erect setae; metafemur with a subapical dark band ( Fig. 39 View Figure 39 E). Protibiae and mesofemur without spines.

Abdomen: Brown, with abundant short recumbent setae. Male genitalia: Pygophore ( Fig. 41 View Figure 41 A, B) rounded, apex with a protuberance pointed dorsally; anterior margin of dorsal aperture slightly rounded, inner projections more pronounced posteriorly. Parameres: Figure 41 View Figure 41 (C, D). Aedeagus: conjunctiva with some minute spines laterally, lobes of vesica slightly sclerotized, with a few minute spines distally; processus gonopori long and slender.

Variability observed

The specimens from Tamaulipas and Nueva León (Mexico) differ from the other specimens examined by the short pale band on the basal region of distiflagellomere.

Distribution

Canada, Mexico, and the USA; the Bahamas, South Bimini Island, Haiti, Belize, and Honduras (NEW RECORDS) ( Fig. 42 View Figure 42 ).

This species has a broad distribution in North and Central America, probably originating from an ancestral stock that reached the West Indies and Galapagos Islands where it differentiated into other species: H. pacificus in the Galapagos Islands and H. pulchellus and H. concolor in Cuba, the Cayman Islands , and the Dominican Republic.

Type material

The type series is deposited in SMNH and is from Texas and New Jersey (USA); Scudder (1977) designated a female lectotype and paralectotypes.
