Camptomyia heterobia Mamaev, 1961 View in CoL

Fig. 10 View Fig

A Camptomyia male studied here matches that of C. heterobia as illustrated by Spungis (1989: fig. 3.7), with the exception of the gonostylar apex that in the present specimen is pointed ( Fig. 10A View Fig ) rather than narrowly rounded. What seems to be a difference in shape is most likely just a matter of how the gonostylus is oriented in the slide mount. Also, in Spungis’s illustration the ventral parameres diverge to form a V-shape, while they are parallel to each other in the specimen studied here ( Fig. 10B View Fig ); this difference I deem an indication of these structuresʼ mobility. The few published records of C. heterobia suggest this species to be widespread in the Palearctic, albeit rarely encountered in nature.

Revised diagnosis

Morphology

Camptomyia heterobia View in CoL is characterized by the construction of the parameres, of which the dorsal pair is long and thick, with the apices bent laterad (↓ 1, Fig. 10B View Fig ), whereas the much smaller ventral pair forms two pointed rods laterally attached to the aedeagal apodeme (↓ 2, Fig. 10B View Fig ). Males are large, the body length being 3.3 mm in the German specimen and 4.1 mm in the Russian specimens described by Mamaev (1961), and the posterior fork (M 4 +CuA) is unusually distinct ( Mamaev 1961: fig. 1.1, veins in question labeled Cu 1 and Cu 2).
