Makilingia lineata Baker

( Figs 1 R–S, 8G, 9M–N)

Makilingia lineata Baker, 1924: 65 , Fig. 9

Male. Unknown.

Female. Sternite VII less than twice as wide as long, posterior margin with narrow M-shaped emargination. Second valvulae with dorsal margin evenly arcuate through most of length, teeth more prominent and long near middle than at base and apex.

Notes. This species was described based on a single female specimen deposited in the USNM collection. The type specimen has been crushed dorsoventrally and is in poor condition and no other specimens matching Baker's description and illustrations were located. The species may be distinguished from other members of the genus by the narrow black median triangular marking on the crown.

Material examined. Female holotype labeled "Imugin/ N. Viscaya/ Baker; 20430; Makilingia / lineata / Baker [red label]; JNZ_AA0031; USNMENT / 01513319" (USNM).
