Diagnosis. Body ovalconvex. Integument pale yellow with black spots on pronotum and elytra ( Fig. 21 View Figs ). Pronotum with square central spot with lateral constriction and small invagination in anterior portion. Scutellum black. Elytra yellow, with apical triangular spot onefourth length of elytra. Length 2.67 mm. Width 2.17 mm.

Male. Median lobe asymmetric, smaller than parameres, very wide base; apex rounded with anterior projection. Parameres foliate and widened with long bristles along rounded borders ( Fig. 38). Sipho elongate, curved, with apex wrinkled, with lateral projections and apical projection ( Fig. 39).

Remarks. Hinda terminata is similar to H. uncinata and H. buqueti in the yellow background of the elytra, but it differs from them in that only the elytral apex is black. Also, the male genitalia are asymmetrical, and the species has the same geographic distribution in the Atlantic Coastal region.
