Diagnosis. Thorax orange yellow ( Figs 19 A, D View FIGURE 19 ). Lateral longitudinal carinae of pronotum with tapering apex ( Fig. 19 D View FIGURE 19 ). Median longitudinal carina of pronotum weakly marked ( Fig. 19 D View FIGURE 19 ). Ventral margin of periandrium with long indentation ( Fig. 20 G View FIGURE 20 ).
Description. Measurements. Body length: male 2.1 – 2.2 (4.4–4.5 including wing) (N=3); female: 2.2 – 2.4 (4.3 – 4.9 mm including wings) (N=3).
Coloration. Head and thorax orange yellow ( Figs 19A, D View FIGURE 19 ), median region of the frons above lateral ocelli and pedicel light brown; white pedicel plaque organs ( Fig. 19C View FIGURE 19 ). Forewing dark brown, semihyaline, with basal half of the veins brown and apical half of the veins red ( Fig. 40E View FIGURE 40 ). Hind wing semihyaline, light brown with hyaline regions ( Fig. 40F View FIGURE 40 ). Legs yellow, except protibiae, protarsus, mesotarsus and mesotibiae light brown. Abdomen dark brown, except sternites I, II, anal tube (segment X), pygofer and gonostyli yellow; sternites IV + V, VI, VII red brown ( Figs 19A, E View FIGURE 19 ).
Head: frons wide, distance between the lateral carinae of frons on median portion, approximately half the maximum width of vertex ( Fig. 19C View FIGURE 19 ). Clypeus approximately twice longer than its maximum width; median carina of clypeus strongly marked, does not touch epistomal suture, present on distal 2/3 ( Fig. 19C View FIGURE 19 ). Pedicel globose, approximately 5 times longer than scape ( Fig. 38A View FIGURE 38 ). Scape short without cuticular denticles ( Fig. 38A View FIGURE 38 ).
Thorax: anterior margin of pronotum with tapered apex, lateral longitudinal carinae slightly arched and converging on anterior margin and strongly diverging towards posterior margin; median longitudinal carina of pronotum present, but weakly marked; posterior margin of pronotum shallowly concave in the middle; pronotum without pustules on posterior margin ( Fig. 19D View FIGURE 19 ); median and lateral longitudinal carinae of mesonotum present, but weakly marked ( Fig. 19D View FIGURE 19 ).
Forewing: RA and RP veins with the apex gently curved anteriorly; r-m cross-vein present; ir cross-vein close to the r-m2 cross-vein, not aligned; MP vein with four branches with uncurved apex; first bifurcation of MP vein arising after r-m cross-vein; m-cu cross-vein present; CuP vein approximately 8 times longer than Pcu + A 1 vein; apex of clavus with acute angle ( Fig. 40E View FIGURE 40 ).
Hind wing: first bifurcation of MP vein arising after m-cu cross-vein ( Fig. 40F View FIGURE 40 ).
Legs: metatibia with 9 apical spines; metatarsus with 6+6 apical spines.
Abdomen: posterior half of sternites IV + V and VI with four long, thin, whitish setae; posterior margin of sternite VII v-shaped in posterior view. Female ( Fig. 19B View FIGURE 19 ). Similar to male, except for the coloration of some body parts (ranging from orange yellow to yellow brown), coloration of protibiae, protarsus, mesotarsus and mesotibiae (ranging from light brown to yellowish) and coloration of abdomen (ranging from light brown to yellowish) ( Figs 19B, F View FIGURE 19 ).
Male terminalia ( Figs 20A–G View FIGURE 20 ): Pygofer with posterior margin with a short digitiform projection of equal sizes on each side in the dorsal region, sinuous internal margin, with sparse setae in lateral view ( Fig. 20B View FIGURE 20 ). Gonostyli with truncated apex in lateral view, outer margin with short projection and with a rounded apex near apex and surface and inner margin with some setae ( Fig. 20D, E View FIGURE 20 ). Phallic complex ( Fig. 20F, G View FIGURE 20 ): periandrium oval shape in dorsal view; dorsal margin of periandrium without indentation at the apex and ventral margin with long indentation at the apex ( Figs 20F, G View FIGURE 20 ). Inner sclerotised plates approximately of the same diameter in its extension narrowing towards the apex, with serrated margins ( Figs 20F, G View FIGURE 20 ). Anal tube (segment X), short, apex smoothly reentrant, with many sparse setae in dorsal view ( Fig. 20C View FIGURE 20 ).
Female terminalia ( Figs 21A–E View FIGURE 21 ): pygofer with numerous setae in posterior view ( Fig. 21B View FIGURE 21 ). Gonapophysis VIII (first valvula) robust, with sparse setae in the basal region and median region, without small spiniform projections in lateral view; three lateroapical projection of unequal sizes, two wide projections with irregular teeth dorsally and one small projection with smooth dorsal margin, in lateral view ( Fig. 21E View FIGURE 21 ). Bursa copulatrix densely filamentous apically, acute apex, covered by setae laterally on apical half, and with small spiniform projections on median region in lateral view ( Fig. 21E View FIGURE 21 ). Gonapophysis IX (second valvula) robust, forked on apical half, lobes with a pointed apex and apex of bifid lobes, strongly curved latero-ventrally in dorsal view ( Fig. 21D View FIGURE 21 ). Gonoplac (third valvula) subtrapezoidal, apex rounded with several setae apically and sparse setae laterally in lateral view ( Fig. 21C View FIGURE 21 ). Anal tube (segment X), short, apex smoothly reentrant, with sparse setae in dorsal view ( Fig. 21A View FIGURE 21 ).
Variations. The median longitudinal carina of pronotum and median longitudinal carina of mesonotum are strongly marked, and median longitudinal carinae of mesonotum was absent, in some specimens. Variations in the coloration of the body have been observed in some male specimens, from dark brown to light brown.
Etymology. From the Greek makros, long, pteron, wing. The species name is allusive to the length of the forewing, about 4× the length of the abdomen.
Distribution. Brasil (Amazonas and Amapá) ( Fig. 42 View FIGURE 42 ).
Comments. B. macroptera sp. nov. differs from the other species of Bebaiotes by the coloration of the head and thorax orange yellow, forewing dark brown, lateral longitudinal carinae slightly arched and converging on anterior margin and strongly diverging towards the tegula and ventral margin of periandrium with long indentation.
