Figs 7 View Fig. 7 E, 9E–F
Diagnosis
Clistopyga amazonica sp. nov. can be distinguished from all other species of the C. chaconi species group by the combination of the following characters: wings hyaline; propodeum and metapleuron entirely orange; hind coxa orange, dark brown in ventral distal part; hind femur dark brown to black, distally and centrally (non-defined band) white ( Fig. 7 View Fig. 7 E); ovipositor slender, weakly and evenly upcurved over apical 0.4 ( Figs 7 View Fig. 7 E, 9F), 1.3–1.4 times as long as hind tibia; antenna with 35–36 flagellomeres, first flagellomere 5.9–6.1 times as long as wide; clypeus 1.52–1.64 times as wide as long; hind wing with vein cu-a about 0.4 times abscissa of Cu 1 between M and cu-a; clypeal suture strongly curved ( Fig. 9 View Fig. 9 E); setae of ovipositor sheath, on average, about 3.0 times the sheath basal width ( Fig. 9 View Fig. 9 F); malar space 0.75–0.83 times basal width of mandible; tergite I 1.7–1.8 times as long as posteriorly broad.
Etymology
The name of the species refers to Amazonia, the largest rain forest of the world.

Description
Female
MEASUREMENTS. Body length 8.5–10 mm. Fore wing length 5.9–7 mm.
HEAD. In dorsal view, strongly narrowed behind eyes. Gena smooth and shiny with sparse, moderately long setae ventrally, in dorsal view 0.35–0.37 times as long as eye, in frontal view straight and moderately constricted below eyes ( Fig. 9 View Fig. 9 E). Frons smooth and shiny, with a very weak medial longitudinal depression. Vertex smooth and shiny, with very isolated setiferous punctures. Posterior ocellus separated from eye 0.73–0.80 times its maximum diameter. Distance between hind ocelli 0.65–0.90 times maximum diameter of posterior ocellus. Occipital carina strongly raised, forming a dorsomedial flange, conspicuously upcurved posteriorly. Face with fine and dense setiferous punctures, distance between punctures about diameter of punctures. Clypeal suture strongly curved. Clypeus 1.52–1.64 times as broad as medially long, weakly convex in dorsal half, flat in ventral half, with apical margin truncate. Malar space 0.75–0.83 times as long as basal mandibular width, with deep and narrow sulcus between eye and mandible, sulcus short, evanescent towards mandibular basis, forming a triangular granulate area ( Fig. 9 View Fig. 9 E). Antenna with 35–36 flagellomeres, first flagellomere 5.9–6.1 times as long as wide.
MESOSOMA. Pronotum shiny, mostly smooth, with fine and sparse setiferous punctures in upper posterior part. Mesoscutum entirely smooth and shiny, median lobe anteriorly with very fine, shallow and sparse setiferous punctures. Notauli moderately deep, reaching about 0.6 of length of mesoscutum. Mesopleuron shiny, with moderately sparse and deep setiferous punctures, except in dorsal posterior part. Epicnemial carina weak, its dorsal end weakly curved backward, ending moderately far from anterior margin of mesopleuron at level of centre of pronotum. Metapleuron shiny, with fine and sparse setiferous punctures, 1.9–2.0 times as long as deep. Propodeum smooth and shiny, with sparse and fine setiferous punctures laterally; in dorsal view 1.0–1.1 times as long as medially wide. Propodeal spiracle contiguous, with groove separating propodeum and metapleuron, groove barely interrupted by spiracle. Hind leg with femur 3.8–3.85 times as long as deep, 0.90–0.95 times as long as tibia. Fore wing with vein cu-a opposite Rs & M. Vein 2 rs-m about half length of abscissa of M between 2 rs-m and 2 m-cu. Abscissa of Cu 1 between 1 m-cu and Cu 1a 1.5–1.7 times as long as Cu 1b. Hind wing with vein cu-a about 0.4 times as long as abscissa of Cu 1 between M and cu-a. Vein cu-a + abscissa of Cu 1 between M and cu-a slightly reclivous. Vein Cu 1 very weakly pigmented.
METASOMA. Tergite I 1.7–1.8 times as long as posteriorly broad, smooth and shiny, with fine and relatively dense setiferous punctures laterally; spiracle near its basal 0.4; lateromedian longitudinal carinae strong, reaching about 0.3 of length of tergite; lateral longitudinal carinae strong, reaching about 0.2 of length of tergite. Sternite 1 extending back about 0.6 of length of tergite. Tergite II 1.20–1.26 times as long as posteriorly broad, central region shiny, with very fine and moderately sparse setiferous punctures; rest of tergites shiny, more densely and strongly punctate. Ovipositor slender, weakly and evenly upcurved at distal 0.4, somewhat matt, 1.3–1.4 times as long as hind tibia. Ovipositor sheath about 1.1 times as long as hind tibia, length of setae on average about 3.0 times the sheath basal width ( Fig. 9 View Fig. 9 F).
COLOURATION. Body primarily orange, black and white ( Fig. 7 View Fig. 7 E). Antenna brown, with scape, pedicel, and basal flagellomeres in ventral part pale. Head black with clypeus, base of mandible, ventral part of gena, inner eye orbit, two longitudinal blotches on the face and two transverse blotches under antennal sockets white. Palpi yellow. Mesosoma entirely orange except two sublateral black marks on posterior rim of propodeum. Tegula orange. Wings hyaline, pterostigma dark brown. Fore and mid legs orange. Hind leg black, with coxa anteriorly and dorsally marked with orange, femur distally and centrally (non defined band), wide band in the middle of tibia and proximal half of tarsal segments white. Metasoma dark brown to black, tergite I tinged with orange anteriorly, anterior corners of tergites II–IV and posterior band of tergites I–V (VIII) white, posterior corners of tergites I–III with black spots. Ovipositor brown. Ovipositor sheath black.
