Pendleburyella sp. 1

( Figs. 7E , 8F , 13 )

Material examined. MALAYSIA • 1♁ (type); Kuala Lumpur; 5 March 1939; 0021 ( MP) .

Remarks. This specimen is small among the other specimens, and is most easily characterised by the very slender FWs and the distinctly longer than broad mirror. The dividing vein of the mirror at the basal end is strongly and distinctly angularly curved, unlike the other specimens examined. It is also clearly different from the holotype of Pendleburyella vicina from Kuala Lumpur by the apical segment of the maxillary palps and the slenderer FWs( Table1 ).
