Lasiocolpus minor Champion, 1900

( Fig. 238–239 View FIGURES 234–239 )

Lasiocolpus minor Champion, 1900: 312 .

Diagnosis: Characterized by its small size, pronotum with protuberant calli and thickly punctured posterior lobe, large eyes with short anteocular region, and dark antennae.

Redescription: Measurements, see Table VII. Male: Dorsal view: Body oblong-oval. General coloration dark brown, pale at base of corion, a pale patch near cuneal fracture. Pilosity dense, semierect, very long, longer than eye width. Posterior lobe of pronotum densely punctured. Head: Anteocular region almost as long as or subequal to eye length. Antennal segments (I:II:III:IV) 1: 3.1: 2.5: 2.5. Labial segment II surpassing midcoxae; III reaching the hindcoxae. Thorax: Pronotum with lateral margins sinuate, noticeably carinate on their apical 2/3; collar thick; posterior margin slightly concave; calli large and protuberant; posterior lobe densely punctured. Hemelytra with lateral margins slightly sinuate, surpassing apex of abdomen; cuneus longer than wide; membrane from tip of cuneus longer than width of base of cuneus. Ventrally dark brown, except legs and labium which are paler. Pilosity short, moderately abundant. Midtibiae without teeth. Abdomen: Hairs on dorsal surface sparse, long hairs along every segment. Grouping of copulatory teeth on sixth abdominal segment short and thick ( Fig. 262 View FIGURES 262–265 ). Genitalia: Right paramere vestigial; length of left paramere ( Fig. 265 View FIGURES 262–265 ) more than half the width of pygophore ( Fig. 263–264 View FIGURES 262–265 ), distally pointed. Female: Similar to male in coloration, more robust. Head: proportion of antennal segments (I:II:III:IV) 1: 3: 2.2: 2.2.

Distribution: Guatemala, Panama ( Fig. 240 View FIGURE 240 ).

Material examined: Lectotype: ♂, paralectotype ♀ (Here designated) Type B.C. A. Rhynch. II; Lasiocolpus minor Champion, Bugaba, 1300 –1500 ft., Champ., Syntype. BMNH ; GUATEMALA: ♂, Los Amajes, Kellerman, L. minor H. H. Harris coll.1977. USNM ; PANAMA: ♂, El Valle, VIII-1946, N. L. H. Krauss, Lasiocolpus minor . USNM .

Discussion: Although the lectotype of this species is in good condition, it is glued to the label by its dorsum together with the paralectotype.
