Male genitalia. Pygofer appendage in lateral view straight and slender through most of length, with somewhat broadened preapical section spanning distal margin of pygofer lobe, apex acuminate and curved slightly dorsad. Subgenital plate evenly curved dorsad in lateral view, broad and darkly pigmented distally, dorsal callosity multidentate. Style with preapical lobe short, blunt; apex strongly curved, without distinct preapical heel. Aedeagus with preatrium nearly as long as shaft; shaft in lateral view moderately broad, slightly expanded and curved dorsad distally, apex truncate; in posterior view with preatrium constricted medially, atrium triangular and moderately produced laterad, shaft constricted near base, evenly widened distally.

Female. Sternite VII approximately twice as wide as long, posterior margin with pair of short, broad obtusely angulate lobes flanking shallow obtuse median emargination. Second valvulae with dorsal margin broadly and more or less evenly arcuate with teeth relatively small and widely spaced.

Material examined. Lectotype male (here designated), Makilingia banahaoensis Baker. Labeled “Mt. Banahao / P.I., Baker; Cotype No. / U.S.N.M.; LECTOTYPE / Makilingia / banahaoensis Baker / des. CH Dietrich & JN Zahniser 2019; USNMENT / 01513155”. 2 male, 3 female paralectotypes, first two labels same as lectotype, 1 female additionally labeled “20427; Makilingia / banahaoensis / Baker”; 1 female additionally labeled “JNZ_AA0133”; each labeled “ PARALECTOTYPE / Makilingia / banahaoensis Baker / des. CH Dietrich / & JN Zahniser 2019”; each with a USNMENT barcode label numbered 0 1513160 thru 0 1513164. [ USNM]; lectotype male, Makilingia banahaoensis var. montalbanensis Baker (here designated), labeled “Montalban / Luzon / Baker; Cotype no. / U.S. N.M.; LECTOTYPE / Makilingia banahaoensis / var. montalbanensis Baker / des. CH Dietrich / & JN Zahniser 2019; USNMENT / 01513249”. 3 female paralectotypes, first 2 labels same as lectotype; 1 additionally labeled “20428”; 1 additionally labeled “JNZ_AA0021”; each labeled “ PARALECTOTYPE / Makilingia banahaoensis / var. montalbanensis Baker / des. CH Dietrich / & JN Zahniser 2019”; each with a USNMENT barcode label numbered 0 1513156 thru 0 1513158 ( USNM). Other material: 1 male, Philippines, Luzon , Rizal, "San Andalos", December 1926, R. C. McGregor, coll. ( USNM).

Notes. Examination of the lectotype male (here designated) of M. banahaoensis montalbanensis supports its synonymy with M. banahaoensis .
