Antillocladius biota View in CoL new species
( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 A–F)
Type material: Holotype male, BRAZIL: São Paulo State, Parque Estadual Intervales, sede de pesquisa, 16.viii.2000, larvae taken on tree trunks, H.F. Mendes ( MZUSP, slide mounted in Euparal). Paratypes: 2 males, as holotype ( ZMBN).
Diagnostic characters: The male imago can be separated from other members of the genus by having bare wing membrane; squama with a few setae ; long costal extension; scalpellate acrostichals starting near antepronotum; long virga ; nearly parallelsided anal point with blunt apex and weak lateral setae ; and inferior volsella short and pointed triangular.
Etymology: Named after the Biota program supported by FAPESP; the name is a noun in apposition.
Male (n = 1–3).
Total length 1.91–2.12 mm. Wing length 1.19–1.25 mm. Total length / wing length 1.60–1.74. Wing length / length of profemur 2.45–2.54. Coloration brown, thorax dark brown, tarsi of all legs light brown.
Head. AR 0.60–0.61, ultimate flagellomere 241–294 µm. Temporal setae 8, including 2–3 inner verticals, 1–2 outer verticals and 3–4 postorbitals. Clypeus with 6–7 setae . Tentorium, stipes and cibarial pump as in Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 A; tentorium 126–131 µm long, 10 µm wide at sieve pore; stipes 88 µm long. Palpomere lengths in µm: 18–25, 30–38, 56–63, 71–76, 101–103. Third palpomere with 3–5 sensilla clavata subapically, longest 13 µm long.
Thorax ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 B). Antepronotum with 1–3 setae . Dorsocentrals 8–11; acrostichals 11– 12, all scalpellate starting close to antepronotum; prealars 2–3. Scutellum with 6 setae .
Wing ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 C). VR 1.38–1.64. Costal extension 76–88 µm long. Brachiolum with 1 seta, R with 0–3 setae , R1 with 0–1 seta, other veins bare. Wing membrane bare. Squama with 3–6 setae .

Width at apex of front tibia 28–33 µm, of middle tibia 28–30 µm, of hind tibia 33–38 µm. Hind tibial comb with 9–11 setae , shortest seta 13–18 µm long, longest seta 28–33 µm long. Lengths (in µm) and proportions of legs as in Table 3 View TABLE 3 .
Hypopygium ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 D–F). Anal point 56–58 µm long; 20–25 µm wide at base, with 13–14 strong lateral setae , void of microtrichia except at base. Laterosternite IX with 7–8 setae .
