Phylloicus angustior Ulmer, 1905a:78 View in CoL [Type locality: Brazil, Rio Gr. do Sul [sic]; NMW; male]. — Flint 1966:11 [lectotype male]. — Botosaneanu & Alkins­Koo 1993:38 [distribution].

I was unable to locate a specimen with Flint’s lectotype label; it is not possible to determine if the specimens from Vienna I examined are those examined by Flint; the label data are the same. Phylloicus angustior View in CoL is distinguished by the acute apex of tergum X (in lateral view; Fig. 19A View FIGURE 19 ) and the unpatterned forewings.

Adult. Forewing length 12.1­14.4 mm, n = 105.

Head dark brown, with dorsomesal crest of chestnut brown setae. Maxillary palps chestnut brown. Antenna twice forewing length; dark brown, with narrow patches of pale sensilla on anteromesal surface of each flagellomere. Dorsal pterothorax dark brown; ventrolateral thorax golden. Femora golden; tibiae dark brown; foretarsi dark brown; mesotarsi pale tan; metatarsi dark brown. Metathoracic leg of male with posterior fringe of long setae, setae dark. Tibial spur formula 2,4,4. Forewing flat; dark brown; with golden bands and dark patches; with single basal stripe, golden; darker setae surrounding thyridial spot, extending to posterior margin; two short dark bands in anterodistal portion of wing; with small golden spot marking thyridium. Hind wing basal brush absent.

Male. Preterminalic abdominal terga with anteromesal notch. Corematic structures absent, terga III­V unmodified, without membranous lobes or sclerotized processes. Sternum VII without anteromesal process. Sternum VIII enclosing base of elongate sternum IX; posteromesal process notched, notch deep and round or narrow and parallel­sided ( Fig. 19A, C View FIGURE 19 ). Tergum IX deeply notched anteriorly, margins of notch ridged; posterior margin with acute mesal projection ( Fig. 19B View FIGURE 19 ); lateral ridge absent; dorsal pleural setae approximately 10, ventral pleural setae absent ( Fig. 19A View FIGURE 19 ). Preanal appendage longer than tergum X, but less than 11/2 times length, widest apically, setae filamentous, longer than appendage ( Fig. 19A, B View FIGURE 19 ). Tergum X without basal lobes; basodorsal process short and digitate; basolateral processes of varying length and often asymmetrical; apex, in lateral view, acute, in dorsal view, notched, notch round; with row of short setae on lateral surfaces and apicodorsally ( Fig. 19A, B View FIGURE 19 ). Harpago rounded; peglike setae many, apical ( Fig. 19A, C View FIGURE 19 ). Phallotremal sclerites average size, longest dimension less than diameter of phallobase; dorsal sclerite ovoid, in dorsal view horseshoe­shaped ( Fig. 19D, E View FIGURE 19 ).

Female. Preterminal abdominal terga with anteromesal notch. Sternum VII without anteromesal process. Tergum VIII without posterolateral brush; sternum VIII with shallow posteromesal notch; sternum VIII ( Fig. 20C View FIGURE 20 ). Tergum IX with very short mesal ridge ( Fig. 20B View FIGURE 20 ). Sternum IX anterior and posterior lobes darkly sclerotized and striate, punctate, with patch of lightly sclerotized cuticle lateral to vaginal opening ( Fig. 20A View FIGURE 20 ). Tergum X appendage length equal to mesal lobe, base indistinct, apex triangular; mesal lobe lightly sclerotized; digitate lateral processes length approximately equal diameter and often asymmetrical ( Fig. 20B View FIGURE 20 ). Sternum X with patches of short fine setae posterolaterally to anal opening ( Fig. 20A View FIGURE 20 ). Vaginal apparatus anterior and posterior sclerites equal in length; anterior sclerite rounded anteriorly, posterolateral projections absent; posterior sclerite triangular; posterior end of spermatheca a sclerotized expanded tube ( Fig. 20A View FIGURE 20 ).
