TRICHADENOTECNUM BREVICORNUM View in CoL SP. NOV.
Material examined: Holotype. Male. Mexico: Chiapas, 4 km N Tuxtla Gutiérrez , 15.vii.1962, ELM ( ISU).
Etymology: The specific epithet is taken from Latin brevis (= short) + cornu (= horn), in reference to the short hypandrial left process of this species.
Description: Male (teneral). Head. White in ground colour; vertical and orbital markings pale brown; coronal suture black; frontal suture bordered with narrow pale brown band dorsally; frons with pale brown marking ventro-medially and pair of spots laterally; ventral and dorsal margins of gena pale brown; eye black, IO/D = 0.9; ocelli white, ocellar field black; antennal socket bordered with broad pale brown band; postclypeus with c. eight rows of pale brown spots, fused with each other ventrally forming a large marking, ventro-lateral corner white, dorsal margin without marking; anteclypeus pale brown. Antenna pale brown, scape brown. Mouth parts white.
Thorax. Prothorax pale brown. Mesonotum white; anterior surface of scutum pale brown; anterior margin of lateral lobe of scutum brown; scutellum white, anterior margin brown; postnotum pale brown. Metanotum pale brown, with three white oval spots on posterior regions of lobes of scutum. Mesopleuron white, except dorsal half pale brown. Metapleuron brown except membranous region white.
Legs. White; middle and hind coxae pale brown; all femora with blackish brown spot at distal end ventrally; hind femur with slightly darker portion near distal end.
Forewing ( Fig. 17I View Figure 17 ). Spots in cell a 1 apparent, basal one small. Opposing spots in cell r distinct only for posterior spot, anterior spot indistinct. Proximal band narrow and somewhat indistinct in cell CuA, broadly interrupted just beyond fork of M + Cu. Distal band narrow and faint. Spot on roof of cell m 3 narrow but distinct. Submarginal spots apparent; spot in cell r 5 elongate. Marginal clouds faint. Hindwing. Hyaline, cell CuP with faint brownish marking; veins pale brown.
Abdomen. White, each segment with blackish brown band. Terminalia. Clunial arm ( Fig. 31A View Figure 31 ) weakly developed, with membranous lobe covered with short spines. Anterior margin of 8th sternum ( Fig. 31C View Figure 31 ) with semicircular extension medially, fusion with hypandrium narrow. Epiproct lobe ( Fig. 31B View Figure 31 ) wider than

long, dorsal margin slightly concave, with rounded projection medially, posterior surface with swelling medially near dorsal margin. Paraproct ( Fig. 31A View Figure 31 ); ventro-lateral band absent; distal process long. Hypandrium ( Fig. 31C View Figure 31 ): left process short, not reaching right process, conical, curved inwards; right process well developed, projected posteriorly, then strongly bent postero-internally near base; median tongue broadened apically, apical margin with median notch, dorsal keel rounded. Phallosome ( Fig. 31D View Figure 31 ): pseudoparameres widely separated, long, slightly longer than wide, directed posteriorly, apical margin rounded, postero-internally with serrated projection. Phallobase nearly parallel sided, then narrowing to pointed anterior end.
Length. B 2.3; FW 2.6; HW 1.9.
Female. Unknown.
Distribution: Mexico.
