Elaphopsocus Roesler View in CoL

Elaphopsocus Roesler, 1940: 239 View in CoL . Type species: Elaphopsocus glaphyrostigma Roesler View in CoL , by monotypy. The etymology of the genus name (Elaphos means deer, in Greek) refers to the external parameres being antler-like.

Roesler diagnosed the genus in four lines, utilizing male forewing, hypandrium and phallosome characters. The information provided by the species described below allows the following expanded generic diagnosis: forewings with a distinct, variable pigmented pattern ( Figs 3 View FIGURES 1 – 6 , 9 View FIGURES 7 – 12 , 13 View FIGURE 13 , 16 View FIGURES 14 – 19 , 22 View FIGURES 20 – 25 , 28 View FIGURES 26 – 31 , 34 View FIGURES 32 – 37 , 38 View FIGURES 38 – 42 , 47 View FIGURES 43 – 49 , 50 View FIGURES 50 – 51 , 52, 53, 54 View FIGURES 52 – 54 ); pterostigma much wider posteriorly, with posterior angle decidedly extended towards Rs. Areola postica with sides slightly convex, with a short crossvein between its apex and M. Hypandrium broad, with posterior border either straight, with postero-lateral corners rounded, not projected posteriorly, or with posterior border straight, convex or concave, with postero-lateral corners projected into a short or long extension. Phallosome with side struts anteriorly fused or independent. Aedeagus forming an arch or with aedeagal arms separate. External parameres simple, or complex, branched antler like, as in the type species. Male paraprocts with a distinct mesal or posterior prong. Female subgenital plate broad, with a median process, straight posteriorly. Gonapophyses: v1 long, slender, distally acuminate, v2 broad, with an acuminate distal process, v3 broad, bearing setae posteriorly, lacking posterior lobe.
