Zuata oneraria (Jacobi) View in CoL , description of male.
Tomaspisinella oneraria Jacobi, 1942: 116 View in CoL .
Diagnosis. Male black with extensive yellow area on tegmen (as in female) and with contrasting orange band across pronotum and red legs (brighter than in female, Fig. 13 View FIGURES 12 – 13 H).
Description. Male subgenital plates very large, tapered to narrow tips in ventral aspect ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 36 – 45 D), in lateral aspect completely surrounding tiny non-functional styles ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 36 – 45 A); pygofer spine straight, directed caudad; theca stout, bearing 4 lateral pairs of retrorse spines and 2 smaller apical pairs of divergent spines ( Figs 37 View FIGURES 36 – 45 B–C).
Remarks. The female type from Peru is 9 mm long; a more boldly colored male in the ILNHS collection is 8 mm long and also comes from Peru (with the same data as the type of Z. machadoa , above). The form of the male theca is similar to that of the red-winged Z. ohausi ( Carvalho & Webb 2005, fig. 9g) but the subgenital plates are much larger and the styles correspondingly smaller.
Zuata pictilis sp. nov.
Etymology. pictilis (adjective), painted.
Diagnosis. The most strikingly colored species in the genus, grading backwards from the strongly contrasting head to the more subtle colors of the scutellum and tegmina.
Description. Head and abdomen black, pronotum and legs red, costa of tegmen, venter of thorax and hind femora tan, corium and clavus brown overlaid with yellow or orange streaks ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 12 – 13 L). Male pygofer with truncate posterior margin bearing a row of marginal setae adjacent to base of anal tube ( Fig. 36 View FIGURES 36 – 45 A); subgenital plates short, rapidly tapered to hooked tips directed ventromesad, in ventral aspect tapered from angular bases, broadly separated almost to base ( Fig. 36 View FIGURES 36 – 45 D); styles large, base highly inflated, tip narrow, elongate, curved dorsad; theca large, curved cephalad, parallel-margined to rapidly tapered tip bearing apical pair of recurved processes and preapical pair of retrorse processes appressed to sides of shaft ( Figs 36 View FIGURES 36 – 45 B–C). Female unknown. Length: 9.0– 9.3 mm, width across eyes 1.9 mm, across pronotum 2.8 mm; length of eye 0.6 mm, of side margins of pronotum 0.7 mm.
Type. Holotype male, COLOMBIA, Cundinamarca ─Carpanta Res., 45.3 km E Bogotá, X=998.250, Y=l’045.240, 13–17 Aug. 1988 (E.A. Lisowski) pan trap, #557- 361 in ILNHS . Paratype: 1 male, same data except X=998.870, Y=l’045.500, 12 Aug. 1988 # 557,360 in ILNHS .
