Dellapé, Gimena, 2015, Description of the female terminalia of twenty species of Proconiini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from Argentina, Zootaxa 3915 (4), pp. 521-539 : 529

Oncometopia venata Schröder 1959

Diagnosis. Dorsal coloration dark; anal veins fused at the midpoint of their length. Male: subgenital plates short and triangular; aedeagus with three ventral processes: two directed forward, and one directed ventrally.

Female terminalia. Abdominal sternite VII, in ventral view ( Fig. 15 ), with lateral margins slightly parallel, lateroposterior margins rounded, and posterior margin with shallow median emargination; surface with numerous scattered microsetae. Pygofer, in lateral view, slightly produced posteriorly; surface with scattered microsetae, and a few macrosetae in posteroventral angle. First valvifers, in lateral view, longer than tall, with small spiniform processes on posterior region and fine setae on posteroventral margin. First ovipositor valvulae, in lateral view, rectilinear beyond basal curvature; dorsal sculptured area formed by scale-like processes arranged in oblique lines; ventral sculptured area formed by scale-like processes arranged irregularly; apex acute ( Fig. 35 ), with denticles on dorsal and ventral margins. Second valvulae, in lateral view, rectilinear beyond basal curvature; dorsal margin of blade bearing 37 to 38 noncontiguous teeth, each tooth subtriangular to rounded, declivous posteriorly, with denticles on posterior margin ( Fig. 55 ); ducts extending toward teeth and toward apical blade portion; apex rounded ( Fig. 75 ), with denticles on ventral margin; slight preapical ventral prominence. Gonoplacs, in lateral view, with a few setae on ventral margin; apex rounded.
