Etymology.

The new species name refers to the aedeagus with apodemal processes bearing projections at the mid-length of external surface resembling ears.

Remarks.

Coarctana oricula sp. nov. (Fig. 7) was strongly supported as sister to C. taurina sp. nov. (SR = 99). This relationship was supported by one synapomorphy, 137:0, aedeagal shaft with a conspicuous basolateral expansion that surrounds the previous portion of the shaft, and eight homoplastic characters, as for example, 87:0, valve more than 2 × wider than long and 133:1, apodemal processes of aedeagus, having a lateral process on external margin near mid-length. Coarctana oricula sp. nov. can be easily differentiated by the style (Fig. 23K) with a hook-shaped apex, the apodemal processes of aedeagus (Fig. 23L, M) with the process on external surface rounded, the aedeagal shaft with several minute spiniform processes on posterior surface, and the presence of a pair of long apical processes directed ventrally.
