Diagnosis. Anastrepha cryptostrepha differs from most species of Anastrepha in having the basomarginal hyaline mark in cell r 1 not extending into cell r 2+3 and with its apex aligned with or distal to crossvein r-m. It differs from other species with that wing character in having the distal arm of the V-band complete and connected to the proximal arm and the scutum mostly nonmicrotrichose,

Description. Mostly yellow to orange, with white to pale yellow markings. Setae red brown to dark red brown.

Head: Yellow to orange except ocellar tubercle brown and usually a faint brown pair of spots or slender U-shaped mark on posterior half of orbital plate and vertex, extending laterally to level of orbital setae, connected only to posterior side of mark on ocellar tubercle. 2–3 frontal setae; 2 orbital setae ( Surinam female with 3 on left side), posterior seta well developed. Ocellar seta weak, approximately as long as ocellar tubercle. Facial carina, in profile, straight to very slightly convex dorsally and medially. Antenna extended 0.71–0.77 distance to ventral facial margin.

Thorax: Mostly yellow to orange. Typical white or pale yellow areas (postpronotal lobe; paired sublateral scutal vitta from transverse suture to intra-alar seta; medial scutal vitta; entire scutellum; dorsal margin of anepisternum; katepimeron; and most of anatergite and katatergite) not differentiated in dried specimens examined, probably present in live or fluid preserved material. Posterior margin of scutum with brown band in Peruvian specimens (absent in Surinam female), not extended beyond acrostichal seta anteriorly, laterally with narrow extension including intra-alar seta. Subscutellum and mediotergite entirely orange. Mesonotum 2.98–3.20 mm long. Scutum microtrichose only lateral to intra-alar line posterior to transverse suture; scutellum entirely microtrichose; setulae mostly yellow to orange. Katepisternal seta undifferentiated or weak and shorter than postocellar seta.

Wing ( Figs. 29–30 View FIGURES 18–29 View FIGURES 30–41 ): Length 7.30–7.75 mm, width 2.23–2.40 mm, ratio 2.26–2.34. Apex of vein R 1 at 0.59–0.60 wing length. Cell c 0.92–0.97 times as long as pterostigma; pterostigma 3.95–4.72 times as long as wide. Vein R 2+3 without sharp bends or undulations. Crossvein r-m at 0.62–0.66 distance from bm-cu to dm-cu on vein M. Vein M only slightly curved apically; cell r 4+5 1.36–1.47 times as wide at apex as at level of dm-cu. Cell bcu with distal lobe relatively short, length of bcu 1.45–1.55 times as long as anterior margin. Wing pattern mostly dark brown and yellow. C-band with cell bc yellowish; cell c yellowish, distal 0.67–0.75 of anterior margin brown, broadening distally, posteriorly with elongate medial paler area, not extended into pterostigma or cell r 1. Remainder of C-band dark brown except for small orange subapical areas in cells r 1 and r 2+3. Cell c entirely microtrichose or with elongate nonmicrotrichose posteromedial area very narrow, 0.10 width of cell. C-band and S-band broadly connected along vein R 4+5; hyaline area in cell br elongate, oblique, reaching or narrowly separated from vein R 4+5, 1.0–1.5 times as long as distal colored area of cell; cell dm with basal hyaline area relatively small, but extending to posterior margin. Basal half of S-band with large orange area bordering crossvein r-m and in anterior 0.67 of cell dm, with margins, except proximal margin in cell dm, dark brown and posterior third of band in cell dm and most of cell cu 1 also dark brown; posterior margin with shallow but distinct incision in cell cu 1; distal section of band orange, with posterior margin narrowly brown in Peruvian specimens, both margins more broadly brown in Surinam female; moderately broad, at apex of vein R 2+3 0.69–0.70 times width of cell r 2+3, even in width to distinctly broadening in cell r 2+3, well separated from apex of vein M; hyaline area proximal to it ending at vein R 2+3, narrowly separated from R 2+3 (lectotype), or extended very slightly into cell r 1 ( Surinam female). Hyaline basomarginal spot in cell r 1 short, triangular, sometimes with blunt apex, extended to or almost to vein R 2+3 but not beyond, its apex aligned with or distal to crossvein r-m. V-band complete, mostly brown, broadly to very broadly connected to S-band in cell r 2+3; proximal arm with medial orange area from apex to anterior 0.50–0.67 of dm-cu; proximal arm moderately broad, gradually broadening posteriorly, with basal extension along wing margin, at level of vein M 1.50–1.63 times as wide as distal arm and 1.29–1.65 times as wide as hyaline area proximal to it in cells r 4+5 and dm; distal arm slender, entirely brown.

Abdomen: Mostly orange, without brown markings.

Male terminalia: Lateral surstylus short, extended beyond prensisetae by 1.5– 2.0 times length of prensiseta; in lateral view slightly posteriorly curved and very broad, prensisetae closer to anterior than to posterior margin, posteroapical corner bluntly acute; in posterior view gradually tapered to blunt apex, lateral and medial margins convex. Proctiger with sclerotized areas connected laterally and dorsally. Phallus 5.67–6.00 mm long, 1.88–2.00 times as long as mesonotum; glans 0.65 mm long.

Female terminalia: Oviscape 4.27–4.50 mm long, 1.40–1.41 times as long as mesonotum; distal 0.67–0.75 brown, in Surinam female becoming paler on distal fifth; spiracle at basal 0.27–0.28. Eversible membrane ( Fig. 69 View FIGURES 63–72 ) with ca. 35 slender, medium length, hooklike dorsobasal scales in 3–4 irregular rows in semicircular pattern. Aculeus ( Fig. 112 View FIGURES 108–130 ) straight to slightly ventrally curved in lateral view, 3.71–3.73 mm long; in ventral view base slightly expanded, 0.18 mm wide; shaft 0.10 mm wide at midlength; tip ( Figs. 146 View FIGURES 131–148 , 171 View FIGURES 164–185 ) 0.14–0.17 mm long, 0.08 mm wide, 1.75–2.10 times as long as wide, 0.065 mm wide in lateral view, 0.81 times ventral width, in ventral view triangular, evenly tapering, with lateral margin straight to slightly concave, nonserrate. Spermathecae spherical.

Distribution. Anastrepha cryptostrepha is known from Peru and Surinam. The record from Ecuador reported by Molineros et al. (1992) was based on a misidentification of A. amaryllis ( Tigrero 1998: 48) .

Biology. The host plants and other aspects of the biology of this species other than dates of capture of adults are unknown.

Type Data. Lectotype female ( NMW), PERU: Ucayali: Urubamba River, Meshagua [Mishagua], Oct, Schnuse coll. [examined]. Hendel’s (1914a) description was based on an unstated number of specimens from Peru; his later (1914b) description was based on an unstated number of male and female specimens from “Peru – Meshagua, Urubambafluss, Oktober” in the SMT and his personal collection, now in the NMW. Since Hardy (1968) cited only the Hendel (1914b) description, his lectotype designation applies only for that name. To avoid any possible future confusion, this specimen is here designated as the lectotype of Anastrepha cryptostrepha Hendel (1914a) as well. The lectotype was examined by ALN during a visit to the NMW. The terminalia were slide mounted by Stone.
