Longiantrum coclea Fibiger View in CoL , new species
( Plate 7 View PLATE 7 , figure 1; female genit. plate 24, figure 3)
Material examined. Holotype. Female. Vietnam N, Ban En Base Camp , 31.x.1998, leg. Frontier VN 9804, genit. prep. 6063 M. Fibiger, coll. HNHM.
Diagnosis. Imago (external). Wingspan: from 11 mm.
Head, patagia, anterior part of tegulae, prothorax, basal part of costa, costal part of medial area, and terminal area, including fringes: black; costal medial area quadrangular.
Forewing ground colour: beige throughout, suffused with few black scales.
Crosslines: all lines indistinct, black, except terminal line marked by black interneural dots.
Reniform stigma: indistinct; white; outlined yellow.
Hindwing: grey, terminal line light brown.
Underside: forewing light brown, hindwing grey.
Female genitalia. Ovipositor: short, smoothly rounded posteriorly and at corners.
Posterior apophyses: 1.25 longer than ovipositor.
Anterior apophyses: 0.8 length of posterior apophyses; arising free from fusion of 7 th and 8 th segment (apo.).
7 th and 8 th abdominal segment: strongly fused (apo.).
Ostium: wide; displaced to left, positioned from middle of 7 th segment to fusion between 7 th and 8 th segments.
Antrum: cylindrical; long and strongly coiled.
Ductus bursae: membranous, long and narrow; strongly coiled from antrum; twice as long as corpus bursae (apo.).
Corpus bursae: globular.
Differential diagnosis. L. coclea differs from other Longiantrum species in female genitalia, in:
- proportion of length between anterior and posterior apophyses;
- 7 th and 8 th segment tightly fused;
- shape and sclerotisation of antrum;
- coiling and length of ductus bursae.
Distribution. L. coclea known only from N. Vietnam.
