Phanoperla hubleyi View in CoL sp. n.

( Figs. 12-13 View Figs )

Material examined. Holotype ♂ from Dong Nai, Vietnam, Cat Tien National Park , stream N Park Headquarters, 23 August 1998, B. Hubley, D. Currie, ROM 982006 ( ROM). Paratype: Vietnam, Nam Cat Tien , 200 m 17-25 June 1995, H. Malicky, 1♂ ( PMSL).

Adult habitus. Biocellate. General body color in alcohol pale without dark markings on head. Pronotum pale with obscure darker rugosities on disk; anterior and posterior margins and median suture dark brown, lateral margins pale. Wings pale, veins pale brown; Rs with two branches. Legs pale brown.

Male. Forewing length 7.5 mm. Tergum 8 without mesal lobe. Tergum 9 with lateral sensilla basiconica patches set on low humps, median patch reduced to a few stray sensilla. Processes of hemitergal lobes curved distinctly laterad ( Fig. 12 View Figs ). Mesal clusters of long setae present on sternum 7, poorly developed on sternum 6 and absent on sternum 8. Aedeagal tube and sac without lateral lobes; dorsal sclerite about half tube length, wide and truncate apically; sac as long as tube and armed almost to tip with a dense patch of moderate size spines; sac apex armed with finer and denser spination; apex of tube with a broad complete ring of fine spines ( Fig. 13 View Figs ).

Female. Unknown.

Larva. Unknown.

Etymology. The patronym honors B. Hubley, collector of the holotype and other significant material used in this study.

Diagnosis. The aedeagus of this species is generally similar to that of the Ceylonese species, P. wedda Zwick , although the sac is not as inflated. In addition, P. wedda differs in having a mesal cluster of long setae on sternum 8, a well developed mesal sensilla patch on tergum 9, and a slender dorsal aedeagal sclerite.
