FIGURE 335, PAGE 415 
Length of male 4.7 mm, of female 5.1-5.7 mm. Head with median length of 
crown varying from three-fourths of to equal to interocular width and from 
approximately one-half to six-tenths transocular width, ocelli each almost 
equidistant from median line of crown and adjacent anterior eye angle, crown 
with a shallow transverse concavity before ocelli; clypeus with muscle im- 
pressions not very distinct except in its upper portion. Forewing with base of 
middle anteapical cell occurring opposite base of inner anteapical cell and ap- 
proximately opposite apex of clavus, base of outer anteapical cell obscure. 
Male pygofer broadly convex at apex, with numerous macrosetae in apical 
half, dorsal pygofer margin without processes, but with posteroventral margin 
rolled slightly. inward and with a short acute process directed mesad; plates 
not as abruptly narrowed anteapically as in M. tllustris (Signoret); aedeagus 
very slender and elongate, with a pair of anteapical lateral retrorse processes, 
apex very slightly convex in lateral view; paraphysis consisting of a V-shaped 
bar. Female abdominal sternum VII without prominent lobes at midlength in 
lateral view. 
Crown and pronotum deep black; scutellum ivory behind transverse sul- 
cus; forewings black basally, becoming gradually translucent apically, with a 
semi-elliptical ivory spot in base of each clavus and touching claval suture but 
not extending to commissural margin, and a transcommissural ivory oval spot 
at claval apex with a short extension into brachial cell of each wing, apical
