Diagnosis
Morphology
This new Porricondyla differs from congeneric species in the unusually large and strongly flattened gonostylus ( Fig. 27A View Fig ). The fairly large tooth at the gonostylar apex transitions dorsally into a finely serrate margin (↓ 1, Fig. 27A View Fig ). Larvae and females of P. plana sp. nov. are unknown.
DNA barcode
The CO1 sequence (640bp) of the paratype specimen detailed below is available in BIN BOLD:AEO7191. Search on BOLD’s BIN Database retrieved no further result for this BIN (accessed 27 Aug. 2023).
Etymology
The Latin adjective ‘ plana ’ means ‘flat’. The name refers to the conspicuously flattened gonostylus characteristic of this species.

Other characters
Male
BODY LENGTH. 1.9‒2.2 mm.
HEAD. Eye bridge dorsally 3‒4 ommatidia long. Antenna slightly longer than body; scape and pedicel brighter than flagellum; circumfila present on flagellomeres 1‒13; neck of fourth flagellomere 1.8× as long as unusually slender node ( Fig. 27B View Fig ). Palpus 4-segmented, slightly longer than head height, apical segment longest of all.
THORAX. Scutal windows distinct. Pronotal setae 5‒7, anepisternal setae 0‒3, anepimeral setae 3‒5.
WING. Markedly longer than body. Length/ width ratio 3.0‒3.2.
LEGS. Foreleg with femur 1.1 × length of tibia, T 2 not retained. Acropods, to assess structure of claws and empodia, not retained.
TERMINALIA ( Fig. 27A View Fig ). Gonocoxal synsclerite: ventral emargination U-shaped, with darkly pigmented margin; processes nearly straight, rounded apically, reinforced laterally; a narrowed portion anteriorly with only a few, mostly marginal setae; dorsal apodemes protrude beyond ventroanterior margin. Gonostylus: outside slightly convex, with numerous setae of various sizes; inside slightly concave, with much fewer setae of which 3‒4 are conspicuously long and bristle-like. Parameres fairly slender, crossing each other apically, with narrow transverse bridge subbasally. Aedeagal apodeme longer than gonocoxae, moderately sclerotized, slightly broadened and with large membranous cap apically; ducts of accessory glands evident (not illustrated).
