Phortica (Allophortica) chingolaensis Chen & Máca, sp. nov.

(Figs 1–3)

Diagnosis. This species is similar to P. sexpunctata (Séguy, 1938) from Kenya in the male terminalia, but can be differentiated from it by having the surstylus strongly protruded basally (Fig. 2), the paramere basally bifurcated: outer lobe strongly sclerotized, apically hooked, basally with 3 acute projections (Fig. 3), and the median rod of aedeagus with tripartite processes basally (Fig. 3, aed pr).

Description. Frons brown above, yellow below, with a few thin, sparse interfrontal setae. Pedicel yellow; first flagellomere grayish yellow. Face entirely yellow; facial carina slightly protruded above. Clypeus yellow medially, darkened laterally. Thorax yellowish brown, with dark brown patches and pollinose pattern. Scutellum brownish, with 2 black patches; subscutellum not protruded. Legs yellow, with black patch on each femur and 3 dark brown rings on each tibia. Abdominal first tergite yellow, with 2 brown patches submedially; second tergite yellowish, with 2 triangular black patches sublaterally; third to fifth tergites yellowish, each with medially and laterally protruded black band on posterior margin, and a pair of yellowish patches near lateral margins; sixth tergite broadly black, narrowly yellow along posterior margin. Male terminalia: Epandrium lacking pubescence anteroventrally, with 7 setae on dorsal to posterolateral portion per side (Fig. 1). Surstylus with dense pubescence and ca. 9 thick setae basally, with 1 regular row of ca. 15 prensisetae apically (Fig. 2). Vertical process of gonopods slightly broadened and protruded apicomedially (Fig. 3). Aedeagus: median rod broadened and slightly sclerotized (Fig. 3); outer membrane developed.
