( Figs 127–138 View FIGURES 127–132 View FIGURES 133–138 )
Diagnosis. It belongs in species group anchicayaensis , of Subgroup MPB2A (see Classification below). It differs from the species in that group in having the central sclerite of the hypandrium with a short, distally acuminate mesal process on each side, directed posteriorly, slightly curved inward, and in having the median posterior processes stout, slightly dilated distally, with posterior borders straight; the two processes close together, separated by a deep incision ( Fig. 131 View FIGURES 127–132 ). Side struts of the phallosome slender, V-shaped, separated ( Fig. 132 View FIGURES 127–132 ). External parameres broad, distally rounded, with the posterior borders sclerotized. Anterior arms of the anterior endophallic sclerites broad, curved, with the ends bearing denticles; posterior arms mid-sized, with a bulge on each inner border, the ends pointed; lateral sclerites long, stout, club-shaped, distal ends rounded; mesal sclerite broadly H-shaped, anterior arms long, narrowing distally, posterior arms stout, slightly curved inward, blunt ended. Without posterior sclerites ( Fig. 132 View FIGURES 127–132 ). X sternum subtrapezoidal, more enlarged anteriorly, with anterolateral lobes and medial concavity.
Male. Color (in 80% ethanol). Body brown, with cream and ochre spots. Head pale brown, with dark brown pattern ( Fig. 129 View FIGURES 127–132 ). Compound eyes black, ocelli hyaline, with ochre centripetal crescents. Maxillary palps pale brown, Mx4 darker. Antennae pale brown, flagellomeres with apices cream. Tergal lobes of meso- and metathorax pale brown; pleurae pale brown, with small ochre spots. Legs pale brown, coxae with small dark spot distally. Forewings hyaline, with light brown areas around some veins, pterostigma and near the distal margin ( Fig. 127 View FIGURES 127–132 ). Hindwings hyaline, veins brown ( Fig. 128 View FIGURES 127–132 ). Abdomen cream, with ochre areas; hypandrium, paraprocts and epiproct light brown; endophallic sclerites dark brown.
Morphology. As in diagnosis, plus the following: Head ( Fig. 129 View FIGURES 127–132 ): H/MxW: 1.54; H/D: 2.39; IO/MxW: 0.63. Vertex slightly emarginate, slightly below the level of the upper border of the compound eyes. Outer cusp of lacinial tips broad, with four denticles. Mx4/Mx2: 1.16. Forewings ( Fig. 127 View FIGURES 127–132 ): L/W: 2.49. Pterostigma: lp/wp: 5.08. Areola postica elongate: la/ha: 2.10, CuA 1 gently concave. Hindwings ( Fig. 128 View FIGURES 127–132 ): l/p: 2.79. Hypandrium ( Fig. 131 View FIGURES 127–132 ) of three sclerites. Phallosome ( Fig. 132 View FIGURES 127–132 ). Paraprocts oval, with long, medium and short setae on apical third, with a macroseta near sensory fields, these with 21 trichobothria on basal rosettes ( Fig. 130 View FIGURES 127–132 ). Epiproct ( Fig. 130 View FIGURES 127–132 ) wide, broadly rounded posteriorly, setae as illustrated.

Gonapophyses ( Fig. 138 View FIGURES 133–138 ): v1 slender, elongate, acuminate distally; v2+3: v2 with 8 macrosetae, distal process sinuous, acuminate, with field of microspines. Paraprocts ( Fig. 136 View FIGURES 133–138 ) broadly triangular, with abundant median sized setae and some macrosetae, one of them with spatulate apex; sensory fields with 22–23 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Epiproct ( Fig. 136 View FIGURES 133–138 ) triangular, rounded posteriorly, three macrosetae mesally among others, short to medium sized, other macrosetae on sides and on posterior margin, medium sized setae along sides and apex, as illustrated.
