Galeopsomyia camachoi Hansson sp.nov.

( Figs 70, 71 , 699 )

Diagnosis (female). Antennal clava ±compact and distinctly wider than short funiculars ( Fig. 699 ); genal carina present; fore coxa with a sharp edge along posterior margin, hind coxa without carina along posterior margin; gaster ( Fig. 70 ) 1.9× as long as wide, medio-basal Gt 1 with rectangular incision, Gt 2 0.3× as long as Gt 4.

Female holotype: length of body 1.7mm (paratypes 1.7mm).

Scape yellowish-brown, pedicel and flagellum dark brown. Head metallic bluish-green with antennal scrobes black and clypeus dark brown, vertex less metallic than frons. Thoracic dorsum metallic bluish-green. Legs with fore and mid coxae black, hind coxa metallic bluish-green; trochanters dark brown; femora black with metallic tinges and with apex yellowish-brown; tibiae and tarsi yellowish-brown, T4 brown. Petiole black. Gaster with Gt 1,5,6 metallic bluish-green, Gt

2-4,7

black with metallic blue tinges; gonoplac black.

Antenna with solid clava. Face below level of toruli with weak reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons above toruli with strong reticulation, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina.

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric on sidelobes, elongate on midlobe; midlobe without a median groove, with 11 scattered adnotaular setae. Mesoscutellum with strong reticulation, meshes elongate; submedian grooves indistinct, running parallel with lateral margins of mesoscutellum and thus diverging towards posterior part; anterior pair of setae placed in anterior one-third of mesoscutellum. Dorsellum with strong reticulation. Propodeum with median carina with anterior half with parallel sides and posterior half triangular; callus with two setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation; fore coxa with a sharp edge along posterior margin, hind coxa without carina along posterior margin. Fore wing with four setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum closed; costal setal row unbroken.

Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster ovate; tergites with strong reticulation; medio-basal Gt

1

with rectangular incision.
