which lacks carinae or rugae below the antennal sockets, distinguish 
novoguineana from nigricephala and other species. 
Loboscelidia pasohana Kimsey, new species 
(Figs. 7, 11) 
Holotype male. Body length 3 mm. Frontal projection with 
elongate rectangular medial lobe and smaller lateral lobe beneath 
each antennal socket in frontal view, bilobate in profile; frons 
smooth, with lateral fold along ocular margin; cervical projection

F-I length 1.6X breadth; F-II length 1.7X breadth; gena widened 
behind eye; pronotum as broad as long along transverse and longi- 
tudinal midlines; scutum with parapsides and complete notauli; scu- 
tellum with dense striae and ridges laterally; propodeal projection 
broadly rounded, about 1 MOD high; femora with sparse macro- 
chaetae; mid and hindlegs (fig. 11); midtibial flange extending about 
two-thirds tibial length; hindfemoral flange extending almost entire 
length of femur; hindtibial posterior margin bicarinate, flange 
extending entire length; forewing (fig. 7), R1 0.7X, cu-a 0.5X and Rs 
4.5X as long as stigmal vein. Body dark brown, forewing lightly

Female unknown. 
Holotype male. — Malaysia: Pasoh Forest Reserve, Negri Sembi- 
lan, 17 April 1980, P. Becker and M. Wong (“E. and M. Becker”) 
(Gainesville). Paratypes: 9 males, same data as type, except dates 
between April 1978 and April 1980. 
Discussion. This species most closely resembles laotiana, from 
which it can be distinguished by the longer Rs vein (3. 5-4. OX as long 
as stigmal vein), larger body size, and darker color. Additional 
diagnostic features include the presence of a troughlike sulcus below 
the tegular clip on the mesopleuron, strongly projecting and sub- 
truncate frontal projection, and short F-I.

dorsad from frontal projection along ocular margin; cervical projec- 
tion curved in profile; scape with clear flange extending along entire 
length; F-I-II lengths 2X breadths; pronotum slightly broader than
