Diagnosis

Phaenoglyphis fuscicornis is mainly characterized by a closed radial cell that is 2.8 times as long as wide in both males and females; the presence of pronotal and propodeal carinae; the presence of notauli; scutellum with two oval scutellar foveae separated by a carina and not delimited posteriorly (Fig. 7.3); female antenna with club shape beginning on F3, rhinaria beginning on F1, F1 longer than pedicel, F1 slightly longer than F2, F2 slightly shorter than F3, and F3 subequal to F4 (Fig. 6.9); male antenna with club shape beginning on F3, rhinaria beginning on F5, F1 curved, F1 longer than pedicel and F2, F2 subequal to F3, and F3 slightly shorter than F4. It is similar to P. americana Baker, 1896 (Figs 8.3, 9.3), but can be differentiated by where the club shape begins in females (on F 3 in P. fuscicornis (Fig. 6.9), but on F 2 in P. americana ), the shape of the notauli (deeply excavated anteriorly and weakly posteriorly in P. fuscicornis (Fig. 7.3), but clearly visible all along in P. americana ) and where rhinaria and club shape begin in males (club shape begins in F3 and rhinaria in F 5 in P. fuscicornis , while both begin in F 2 in P. americana ).
