Procandea loretoensis, new species 



Figure 67 



Length 20 mm. Pronotum with lateral margins subparallel, disc 

 punctate. Forewings with membrane as in P. reticulata, new species, 

 clavus and corium pitted, fourth apical cell with base not more prox- 

 imal than base of third, plexus as in P. reticulata. Posterior femoral 

 setal formula 2:1:1. Male pygofer and plates much as in P. marcia 

 (Distant), but plates with more macrosetae, which are located on 

 mesal half of plate; aedeagus as in P. reticulata, but with anteapical 

 dorsal processes slender and recurved and with a slightly prolonged, 

 narrow, apical extension of shaft; style and connective much as in 

 P. reticulata. Color as in P. monticola, new species. 



Holotype male, with labels "Iquitos, Peru/F6062" and "H. Bassler/ 

 Collection/Acc. 33591" (AMNH). 



This species, from the Department of Loreto, is closely related to 

 P. reticulata, but differs in the characters set forth in the key and in 

 the above description. 



Procandea exasperatula, new species 

 Figure 69 



Length of male 16 mm. Forewings with membrane including all 

 of inner apical cell. Male plates extending as far posteriorly as pygofer 

 apex, each with numerous regularly spaced macrosetae and with a 

 number of microsetae along lateral margin ; aedeagus short, in lateral 

 aspect with an apical unpaired dorsal process extending dorsally, 

 without paired processes, middle portion of shaft with a flangelike 

 expansion on each side. Color of crown sordid yellow with a broad 

 median black fovea, pronotum dark purplish with obscurely delimited 

 yellow spots, forewing castaneous with large well delimited yellow 

 areas. 



Holotype male, Santa Inez, Ecuador (R. Haensch) (IZP). 



This species is much similar to the other species in the genus in 

 external appearance, but differs from all of these in the unpaired 

 apical aedeagal process. 



Procandea ochracea, new species 



Figure 65 



Length of male 16 mm. Forewings with membrane including all 

 of apical cells. Male pygofer as in P. furcata, new species; aedeagus 

 with a pair of elongate apical processes which are branched at their 

 apices. Color paler than other species in the genus; markings of crown
