Triplocania lamasi Silva-Neto, Rafael & García Aldrete , Female

( Figs 359–364 )

T. lamasi Silva-Neto, Rafael & García Aldrete (2014) , p. 79.

Diagnosis. Wings hyaline; ninth sternum of two areas, an anterior oval, with a narrow, anterior mid concavity, and a mid, distally rounded posterior process ( Fig. 364 ); posterior area broadly trapeziform, concave posteriorly. Close to T. lamasoides Silva-Neto et al. , differing from it by having a process in the middle of the posterior border of the anterior half of the ninth sternum, and in lacking one pigmented, rounded area on each side of the longitudinal midline of the posterior half of the ninth sternum.

Color (in 80% ethanol). Body, legs and wings as in the males (see Silva-Neto et al. 2015). Pigmented area of subgenital plate broadly V-shaped, with sides broad, connected by a slender arch ( Fig. 357 ); IX sternum pale brown, gonapophyses dark brown; clunium brown; paraprocts and epiproct pale brown.

Morphology. As in diagnosis, plus the following: Head ( Fig. 361 ): H/MxW: 1.43; H/D: 2.59, MxW/IO: 2.16, IO/MxW: 0.63. Vertex slightly emarginate, well above the level of the upper border of the compound eyes. Outer cusp of lacinial tips broad, with five denticles. Forewings ( Fig. 359 ): L/W: 2.57, pterostigma: lp/wp: 4.40; areola postica slanted posteriorly, la/ha: 2.58. Hindwings ( Fig. 360 ): l/w: 2.96. Subgenital plate ( Fig. 362 ) triangular, densely setose, with apex projected posteriorly, bearing a field of setae. Gonapophyses ( Fig. 364 ): v1 elongate, slender, acuminate, about 2/3 the length of v2 +3; this proximally wide, with long, stout heel; a row of three macrosetae on v2; distal process stout, blunt ended, with microsetae. Paraprocts ( Fig. 363 ) broadly triangular, with rounded posterior margin, setae as illustrated, a macrosetae near each sensory field; these with 28 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Epiproct wide, anteriorly concave in the middle, rounded posteriorly, a group of three macrosetae mesally, other setae as illustrated ( Fig. 363 ).

Measurements. FW: 3400, HW: 2512, f1: 557, f2: 307, IO: 417, D: 367, d: 242, IO/d: 1.72, PO: 0.65.
