Manota submirifica View in CoL sp. n.
( Figs 21 View FIGURE 21 A, B, C)
Male. Colour. Head brown, face paler brown, antennal flagellomeres 1 and 2 ventrally paler brown, mouthparts pale yellowish. Thorax brown, episternum 1 and preepisternum 2 ventrally paler yellowish. Legs pale yellowish, femur 3 infuscated on apical half and very slightly at base, tibia 3 infuscated at base, in the preparation femur 2 appearing slightly darker than femur 1. Wing unicolorous yellowish-brown; haltere yellowishbrown with dark brown knob. Abdomen brown. All the setosity pale, yellowish or brownish, the thicker setae seeming darker than the finer setae and trichia. Head. Antennal flagellomere 4, Fig. 21 View FIGURE 21 A. Palpomere 3 of maxillary palpus with apicomesial extension, with 4 apically expanded curved sensilla; palpomere 4 with parasegment. Number of postocular setae 11. Thorax. Anepisternum setose, with 28 setae, anterior basalare setose, with 9 setae, preepisternum 2 setose, with 16 setae, laterotergite non-setose, episternum 3 setose, with 2 setae. Wing. Length 2.0 mm. Hypopygium, Figs 21 View FIGURE 21 B and C: Sternite 9 about one-third of the ventral length of gonocoxa, lateral margin sharply delimited, sternite 9 divided posteriorly into two parts by a large cleft extending as a furrow near to anterior margin, anterior margin deeply incised, the setae similar to the ventral setae of gonocoxa. Ventral mesial margin of gonocoxa simple. Parastylar lobe very broad (or in anterior-posterior direction unusually long), with several setae at mesial margin. Paraapodemal lobe distinct but in ventral view totally covered by the parastylar lobe. Dorsal mesial margin of gonocoxa simple, with a fingerlike setose lobe apically, ventrally from this lobe, between it and the gonocoxal apodemes, with a plate-like lobe bearing a few setae. Two juxtagonostylar setae present, both of these equally large simple megasetae and arising from a short common basal body which is about one-fourth of their length. Gonostylus simple, elongate, narrow, weakly curved, with moderately long unmodified setae on ventral side, with long needle-like mesiad directed setae on the dorsal side. Tegmen subtriangular, with the apex asymmetric, the lateral shoulders weak. Hypoproct large, extending posteriorly near to middle of gonostylus, with some 20 setae on each half, some 10 of these setae in an indistinct longitudinal row near the mesial margin, several setae in an indistinct lateral group. Cerci medially separate.
Female unknown.
Discussion. M. submirifica is similar to M. mirifica Hippa and Papp and M. aconcinna sp. n. All three species differ from other known Manota by the asymmetric apex of the tegmen. M. submirifica differs from the other two by having the apex of tegmen down-turned as in most Manota , not straight as in M. aconcinna and M. mirifica . M. submirifica is also distinguished from the other two by having a group of needle-like transverse setae on the dorsal surface of the gonostylus. For additional discussion, see under M. aconcinna .
