D i a g n o s i s.This species can be recognized from the combination of face without facial carina; one pair of long ocellar setae; parafacial in profile as wide as flagellomere 1, mesonotum and abdomen with black (in type of A. facialis brown, rather faded) pattern; scutellum with one (apical) pair of long setae; wing grey microtrichose, without spots or bands; fore femur with 2 long subbasal ventral (in addition to common basal) and 2–7 long posterodorsal setae, mid femur with long and dense setae on anteroventral surface and large kidney-like femoral organ in distal one-third of femur; medioventral cape in femoral organ densely white microtrichose; abdominal sternites with transverse rows of long suberect setae at posterior margins; ventral hooks on oviscape slender; 1–2 pairs of erect thick black setae on ventral surface of oviscape anterior of hooks.

Рис. 3. Eupyrgota pictiventris ♀ (1, 3–7, 9–10, 12–13 — голотип Apyrgota pictiventris ; 2, 8, 11 — голотип Adapsilia facialis ): 1 — общий вид, сверху; 2 — то же, слева; 3 — этикетки; 4–6 — голова (4 — слева, 5 — спереди, 6 — сверху); 7 — крыло; 8 — среднеспинка, сверху; 9 — переднее бедро; 10, 11 — среднее бедро; 12 — заднее бедро; 13 — брюшко, сверху.

Рис. 4. Eupyrgota unicolor , голотип Ơ: 1 — общий вид, слева; 2 — этикетки; 3, 4 — голова (3 — спереди, 4 — слева); 5 — крыло; 6 — среднеспинка, сверху; 7 — переднее бедро; 8 — среднее бедро; 9 — заднее бедро; 10 — брюшко, сверху; 11 — основной членик яйцеклада, сбоку и снизу; 12 — то же, щетинки, увеличено.

R e m a r k s. The presence of reduced basal pair of sctl and slender hooks of oviscape support its placement to Taeniomastix . The only syntype of A. facialis (Hendel has not indicated the number of type specimens) is a teneral specimen with collapsed head and brown abdominal and thoracal pattern, but otherwise shows no differences from types of E. tigrina , and I consider then conspecific and synonymize these names.
