Doratura jole View in CoL sp. nov.
( Figs 2E View FIGURE 2 ; 9K View FIGURE 9 ; 12M, N View FIGURE 12 ; 13C, D View FIGURE 13 ; 14E–G View FIGURE 14 ; 19E View FIGURE 19 )
Description. Coloration ( Figs 13C, D View FIGURE 13 ). With the general characters described for the genus Doratura (see above). Hind region of vertex sometimes with small spot on each side near hind margin; pronotum light without markings. Fore wings hyaline pale greenish, sometimes slightly fuscous near hind margin, lateral border whitish. Abdomen light with eight longitudinal rows of ± distinct markings, central ones very close to each other, divided by noticeably light middle line, middle ones formed of small spots, lateral two rows more distinct and formed of longitudinal stripes; in light specimens abdominal markings almost lacking.
Measurements. Males: Total body length: 4.2–4.25 mm; width over wings: 1.55–1.63 mm; width of head: 1.31–1.34 mm; length of vertex: 0.52–0.56 mm; length of forewings from shoulder to apex: 1.52–1.59 mm; length of hind tibia: 2.21–2.50 mm.
Females: Total body length: 5.75 mm; width over wings: 1.65–1.73 mm; width of head: 1.43–1.46 mm; length of vertex: 0.58–0.59 mm; length of forewings from shoulder to apex: 1.69–1.79 mm; length of hind tibia: 2.45–2.64 mm.
Male genitalia. Aedeagus shaft in lateral view ( Fig. 14E View FIGURE 14 ) with apical third very thin, basal two-thirds dorsally almost straight, ventrally evenly convex, maximum width in the middle of this portion; ventral border except for basal fifth with irregular spinules; in ventral view ( Fig. 14F View FIGURE 14 ) basally wide, central portion narrower with parallel margins, apical fifth tapering, with straight margins, apex acuminate; in sagittal area two rows of spinules divided by narrow furrow. Socle high, well developed. Styles ( Fig. 14G View FIGURE 14 ) in dorsal view with denticle somewhat basally of mid-length, portion basally of denticle of equal width, only slightly curved, apical portion long and quite narrow, bent in lateral direction. Connective ( Fig. 2E View FIGURE 2 ) with basal and branched portion of approximately same length; basal part distinctly narrowing from base to central region, branching widely rounded. Pygofer with about four long macrosetae on each side near its dorso-caudal margin, bristles in ventro-caudal pubescence field quite robust, hairs in anterior area fine but distinct and long. Genital plates ( Figs 12M, N View FIGURE 12 ) long, with sub-angular sutural angle, posterior margin obliquely running in latero-caudal direction without distinct exterior angle, lateral margin sinuate.
Female genitalia. Pregenital sternite ( Fig. 19E View FIGURE 19 ) with hind margin slightly convex in the middle. Ovipositor in lateral view protruding beyond posterior angle of pygofer about a third of its length from hind margin of pregenital sternite to ovipositor tip.
Fifth instar. The nymphs ( Fig. 9K View FIGURE 9 ) collected together with the adult specimens display similar features as nymphs of D. impudica but are rather light coloured with less distinct dark spots.
Diagnosis. D. jole sp. nov. is closely related to D. marandica ( Figs 2D View FIGURE 2 ; 12K, L View FIGURE 12 ; 14A–D View FIGURE 14 ). It shares with this species the body size, the shape of styles with long and narrow apical portion, the aedeagus with two long rows of spinules on its ventral margin divided by a narrow furrow, and the shape of the female pregenital sternite. From the latter species it differs by the evenly curved (not very protruding) ventral margin of aedeagus ( Fig. 14E View FIGURE 14 ) with spinules until to the apex (in marandica lacking in the apical portion), connective ( Fig. 2E View FIGURE 2 ) with longer basal portion, and longer genital plates ( Figs 12M, N View FIGURE 12 ).
Distribution ( Fig. 55B View FIGURE 55 ). Until now, known only from the type locality ( Turkey, East Anatolia).
Ecology. The material was collected on a meadow near a river at 1200 m altitude.
Phenology. The specimens (nymphs, males, females) were collected in the beginning of July.
Type series. Holotype male: AS. Turkey, Tunceli prov., Ovacik env., bank of Munzur; river downstream the village before entering Munzur vadisi NP; meadow, Salix, Quercus; 5.vii.2011; 1200 m; P. Kment lgt.; Collectio National Museum , Praha, Czech Republic .— Paratypes: Same data as holotype; 6 males, 7 females.
Holotype, 4 male and 5 female paratypes are deposited in the National Museum Praha, Czech Republic ( NMPC), 1 male and 1 female paratype in the Moravian Museum, Brno, Czech Republic ( MMBC), and 1 male and 1 female paratype in Senckenberg Naturhistorische Sammlungen Dresden , Museum für Tierkunde, Germany ( MTD).
Etymology. The species is named after a dear friend. The species name is a noun in apposition.
