25. misella View in CoL species-group
(13 species)
Diagnosis. Members of the misella speciesgroup can be distinguished from other Sagola species-groups by the following combination of characters: body length 2.1–3.3 mm; antennomere 1 approximately 1.5–2.0 times longer than wide, male antennomeres enlarged; frontal rostrum rectangular, lobes continuous, reaching posterior frontal fovea ( Fig. 59o View Fig ); frontal sulcus reaching midpoint of eye, posterior frontal fovea present ( Fig. 59o View Fig ); female hind wings reduced to small pads; abdominal tergites IV–VI with discal carinae.
KEY TO SPECIES OF THE MISELLA SPECIES- GROUP
The key is based on male specimens because most female specimens are indistinguishable based on external morphology.
