Fig. 15 A–C

Diagnosis. In Z. marcoi the gonocoxites have an unusually large, evenly U-shaped ventral emargination (Fig. 15 A), and the ejaculatory apodeme has a short sclerotized point beyond the accessory gland ducts (Fig. 15 B).

Other male characters. Body length 1.6 mm. Head. Eye narrowed ventrally, eye bridge 10–11 ommatidia long dorsally. Scape twice as long as pedicel. With 18–21 flagellomeres. Fourth flagellomere (Fig. 15 C): neck length 0.4 × node length, neck with microtrichia basally, circumfilum unusually strongly sinuous. Palpus 4- segmented. Terminalia. Gonocoxites (Fig. 15 A): ventral emargination with pigmented collar. Gonostylus slender, evenly curved (Fig. 15 A). Ejaculatory apodeme longer than parameres (Fig. 15 B). Parameres (Fig. 15 B): basal portion subrectangular, apical portion short, tulip-shaped, 1 pair of processes each with 4–6 points, lateral shoulders (largely hidden behind the processes) pronounced.
