Mogannia indigotea Distant, 1917: 103 View in CoL ; Nast, 1972: 147; Duffels & van der Laan, 1985: 183; Chou et al., 1997: 109.
Description. Body ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 A–B) almost black, shining metallic indigo-blue, with dark brown short hairs.
Head ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 A–D) triangular in dorsal view; postclypeus longer than vertex in dorsal view; apex of vertex with tuft of black hairs; compound eye black; ocellus ochraceous. Distance between lateral ocellus and corresponding eye shorter than distance between lateral ocelli. Rostrum black, extending to apex of mid coxae.
Pronotum ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 C) with several median transverse carinae on posterior area. Mesonotum ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 C) slightly narrower than pronotal collar, without carinae or grooves; cruciform elevation black.
Legs ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 G) mostly black; fore femur with primary spine appressed; secondary and subapical spines erect; secondary spine sharp and short; subapical spine broadened and nearly flat.
Wings ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 A–B) hyaline, veins brown; basal half of fore wing yellowish, outer side of yellowish area with a fuscous oblique fascia, basal cell fuscous; apical cells 1–3 tinged with brown.
Abdomen ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 A–B) cylindrical, about as long as distance from head to cruciform elevation, distinctly extended laterally in dorsal/ventral view; terga VI–VII with white tuft of hairs laterally in dorsal view. Timbal cover ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 F) black, small and somewhat triangular, with apex rounded; timbal largely exposed, with ten ribs and nine intercalary ribs, caudal six ribs fused at base. Ventral surface of body black, shining metallic blue. Male operculum ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 E) dark, short, falcate, extending to anterior margin of seternite II; opercula widely separated from each other.
Male genitalia ( Fig. 4 View FIGURE 4 A–D). Pygofer barrel-shaped in ventral view; dorsal beak long, protruding upwards in lateral view; basal lobe of pygofer short and acute apically; upper lobe of pygofer strong and long, curved upwards apically in lateral view; distal shoulder broadly rounded and convex submarginally, forming a distinct submargin in lateral view. Clasper with median clasper process long, curved inward apically in lateral view and nearly straight in ventral view; lateral clasper lobe developed, slender and digitate. Prominent lobe-like process at both sides of base of aedeagus rounded, short. Aedeagus with six spine-like processes apically and subapically; the basal one on left side longest, with apical one third curved posteriorly in lateral view. Posterior margin of sternite VII angularly protruded.
Female pygofer rounded in dorsal view; dorsal beak slender; posterior margin of sternite VII with ‘U’-shaped incision medially.
