Pachitea ryma, NEW SPECIES 
FicurE 268 
Length of male 9.7-10.1 mm. Head with median length of crown varying 
from one-tenth less than to slightly greater than interocular width, and from 
slightly more than one-half to six-tenths transocular width; clypeus with mus- 
cle impressions not or not very distinct, transclypeal suture obsolete medially. 
Pronotal width slightly less than transocular width of head. Male plates 
narrowed at midlength; style extending posteriorly much farther than apex of 
connective, very broad in basal two-thirds, gradually tapered in apical one- 
third which is not curved and is without preapical lobe; connective very short, 
T-shaped; aedeagus with apical lobe shorter than in P. habenula (Jacobi) and 
oblique at apex; paraphyses with stalk much longer than the pair of rami. 
Female unknown. 
Color of dorsum black to dark brown with markings on forewing dull red 
(type) or pale yellow, always with an oblique marking extending inward from 
costal margin opposite claval apex on each wing and a smaller marking bor- 
dering costal margin opposite base of outer apical cell; forewings in rest posi- 
tion with median markings varying in color and shape, from dull red (type) to 
pale or dull yellow, in some specimens (type) with a semi-elliptical transcom- 
missural spot near base of clavus and a wider spot at claval apex extending 
into corium of each wing, in other specimens with median markings con- 
sisting of a narrow pale yellow longitudinal commissural stripe on each wing 
from yellow tip of scutellum to claval apex, and in some of these with the 
longitudinal stripe interrupted before the claval apex, and with intergrading 
patterns in some specimens; face, thoracic, and abdominal venter, lower por- 
tions of thoracic pleura, and legs, pale yellow, apical posterior tarsomeres 
black in their apical portions; male plates and pygofer black.
