Diagnosis. Body coloration dark brown ( Figs 28A, B View FIGURE 28 ). Posterior margin of pronotum with shallow arched indentation ( Fig. 28D View FIGURE 28 ). Forewing dark brown, with yellowbrown veins ( Fig. 28A View FIGURE 28 ). Ventral margin of periandrium with triangular apex ( Fig. 29 View FIGURE 29 ). Gonapophysis VIII (first valvula) with two projections on lateromedian margin ( Fig. 30E View FIGURE 30 ).
Description. Measurements. Body length: male 3.8 – 4.1 mm (5.5 – 7.1 mm including wings) (N=3); female: 3.7 – 4.0 mm (6.7 – 7.0 mm including wings) (N=3).
Coloration. General body color dark brown ( Figs 28 A, B View FIGURE 28 ). Clypeus, lower half of the gena and episternum light brown; region around the compound eye, lateral carinae of the frons above compound eye, apex of pedicel and pedicel plaque organs, pustules of pronotum, median and lateral carinae of pronotum, posterior median and lateral carinae of the mesonotum, diffuse stripe in the latero-anterior region of the mesonotum, anterior pronotum border and rounded spot in the anterior region of the tegula pale yellow; epimeron white. Forewing dark brown, semihyaline, with white regions and yellow brown veins: narrow white stripe covering ir cross-vein; narrow white stripe extending from r-m2 cross-vein to the MP 4 vein base; white x-shaped region covering the m-cu 2 cross-vein, median region of the CuA1 vein and the icua cross-vein; narrow white stripe near at apex of CuA 2; narrow white stripe covering icu cross-vein; apex of clavus white ( Fig. 41C View FIGURE 41 ). Hind wing semihyaline, dark brown with hyaline regions ( Fig. 41D View FIGURE 41 ). Legs light brown. Abdomen dark brown, except white diffuse spot on tergites V and VI, sternites III, IV + V; anal tube (segment X) and gonostyli light brown ( Fig. 28A View FIGURE 28 ).
Head: frons narrow, distance between the lateral carinae of frons on median portion, approximately 3 times smaller than maximum width of vertex ( Fig. 28C View FIGURE 28 ). Clypeus approximately 2.5 times longer than its maximum width; median carina of clypeus strongly marked, almost touching epistomal suture ( Fig. 28C View FIGURE 28 ). Pedicel oblong, approximately 3 times longer than the scapus ( Fig. 38D View FIGURE 38 ). Scape short with cuticular denticles ( Fig. 38D View FIGURE 38 ).
Thorax: anterior margin of pronotum with tapered apex, lateral longitudinal carinae of pronotum converging at an angle anteriorly and subparallel to each other towards posterior margin; median longitudinal carina of pronotum present, strongly marked; posterior margin of pronotum with shallow arched indentation in the middle; pronotum with pustules on posterior margin ( Fig. 28D View FIGURE 28 ); median and lateral longitudinal carinae of mesonotum present, strongly marked ( Fig. 28D View FIGURE 28 ).
Forewing: RA vein with the apex gently curved anteriorly; RP vein with the apex strongly curved anteriorly; r-m cross-vein present; ir cross-vein distant from r-m2 cross-vein; MP vein with five branches with apex gently curved anteriorly; first bifurcation of MP vein arising after r-m cross-vein; m-cu cross-vein present; CuP vein approximately 2.5 times longer than Pcu + A 1 vein; apex of clavus with straight angle ( Figs 41C View FIGURE 41 ).
Hind wing: first bifurcation of MP vein arising before m-cu cross-vein ( Fig. 41D View FIGURE 41 ).
Legs: metatibia with 7 apical spines; metatarsus with 7+6 apical spines.
Abdomen: posterior pit of the sternite III rounded ( Fig. 28E View FIGURE 28 ); posterior half sternites IV + V and VI with four long, thin, whitish setae; posterior margin of sternite VII rounded. Female ( Fig. 28B View FIGURE 28 ). Similar to the male, except sternite VI partially covering by the sternite VII, anal tube (segment X), yellowish brown.
Male terminalia ( Figs 29A–G View FIGURE 29 ). Pygofer with posterior margin without projections, with few setae in posterior view ( Fig. 29B View FIGURE 29 ). Gonostyli with truncated apex in lateral view, outer margin with short and pointed projection near the apex, inner margins with some setae ( Figs 29A, D, E View FIGURE 29 ). Phallic complex ( Figs 29F, G View FIGURE 29 ): periandrium robust; dorsal and ventral margin of periandrium with triangular apex ( Fig. 29G View FIGURE 29 ). Inner sclerotised plates narrowing towards the apex, with surface with small spiniform projections ( Figs 29F, G View FIGURE 29 ). Anal tube (segment X), short, apex smoothly reentrant in dorsal view, with few sparse setae dorsally ( Fig. 29C View FIGURE 29 ).
Female terminalia ( Figs 30A–E View FIGURE 30 ). Pygofer with numerous setae and small spiniform projections in posterior view ( Fig. 30B View FIGURE 30 ). Gonapophysis VIII (first valvula) robust, with sparse setae on median region and covered with small spiniform projections in the middle in lateral view; two lateroapical projections of unequal sizes, with smooth dorsal margin in lateral view ( Fig. 30E View FIGURE 30 ). Bursa copulatrix sparsely filamentous apically, obtuse apex, small setae on apical third and small spiniform projections on median region in lateral view ( Fig. 30E View FIGURE 30 ). Gonapophysis IX (second valvula) robust, forked about on apical half, lobes with pointed apex, strongly curved latero-ventrally, hook-like in dorsal view ( Fig. 30D View FIGURE 30 ). Gonoplac (third valvula) subtrapezoidal, apex semi-rounded with numerous apical setae and sparse setae laterally ( Fig. 30C View FIGURE 30 ). Anal tube (segment X), short, apex smoothly reentrant, with few sparse setae in dorsal view ( Fig. 30A View FIGURE 30 ).
Variations. Reddish spots have been observed on sternites V, VI and VII, in some specimens.
Distribution. Brazil (Acre, Amazonas) and Ecuador (Felton) ( Fig. 44 View FIGURE 44 ).
Comments. B. pulla Muir, 1934 differs from B. pennyi sp nov. as previously discussed in the description of the latter.
