Ground color of entire dorsum orange, crown with a large marginal black spot 
on each side of apex, a basal spot continuous with a full length median longi- 
tudinal pronotal stripe and an angular marginal pronotal marking on each side 
near basal angles of scutellum, black; scutellum with a small spot in each basal 
angle and an apical black mark; forewing with a narrow marginal stripe on 
claval commissure, a large H-shaped black mark in corium opposite clavus, but 
also involving outer basal portion of clavus, and a large black spot in corium op- 
posite claval apex; face orange with a median black stripe on clypeus, a marginal 
black spot on each genal margin opposite base of lorum, and a pair of black spots 
at clypellar apex; pleura, thoracic sterna and legs dull orange except for black 
spots on mesepisternum; abdomen with black markings more extensive. 
Holotype male and two females, Colombia, 1941 (L. Richter) (NCS). 
Holotype on indefinite loan to USNM. 
Stehlikiana gaudialis, n. sp., is similar to S. novemnotata (Lethierry) (fig. 26) in the 
structure of the male genitalia, but is easily separated from novemnotata by its 
markings. 
Stehlikiana torquata, NEW SPECIES 
Ficure 41 
Length of male 7.3 mm, of female 7.3-7.6 mm. Head with median length of 
crown varying from one-half to almost six-tenths interocular width and from 
one-fourth to three-tenths transocular width, antennal ledges without a carina, 
clypeus with muscle impressions not distinct, clypellus with contour of its 
apical portion abruptly concave. Thorax with dorsopleural carinae complete; 
scutellum not rugose behind transverse depression; forewing with membrane 
not distinctly delimited; hindleg with length of first tarsomere greater than 
combined length of two more distal tarsomeres. Male genitalia much as S. 
meridaensis, n. sp. (above), but with rami of paraphyses longer in relation to 
stalk and with aedeagus slightly broadened at apex. 
Crown, anterior portion of pronotum, and scutellum sordid yellow, a small 
spot at apex of crown and a broad basal band on pronotum, extending more an- 
teriorly at middle, black; forewing brown to black with a longitudinal band at 
claval commissure that is broadened in its apical half, an oval spot astride claval 
suture in basal half and a more elongate oval spot bordering costal margin in its 
apical half, yellow; face sordid yellow with a black median stripe over clypeus 
and basal portion of clypellus; thoracic pleura yellow; legs dull yellow. 
Holotype male and two females, Bafios, Ecuador 2500 m., May 6, 1939 (W. ~ 
Clark-Macintyre) (NCS). Holotype on indefinite loan to USNM. 
S. torquata, n. sp., is similar to mertdaensis in the structure of the male genitalia, 
differing as in the description above. The dark wings with the elongate oval spots 
are distinctive in torquata.
