Tantogonalia lateralis, NEW SPECIES 
FicuRE 871 
Length 8.3-9.2 mm. Head with median length of crown from slightly more 
than six-tenths to more than seven-tenths interocular width and from slightly 
more than four-tenths to slightly more than one-half transocular width, ocelli 
each slightly closer to adjacent anterior eye angle than to median line of 
crown. Male pygofer almost regularly convex posteriorly in lateral view, in 
ventral view with a very short apical process directed mesad, macrosetae fairly 
numerous compared to 7. praecalva, n. sp., located parallel to posteroventral 
margin; style extending posteriorly beyond apex of connective; aedeagus long, 
slender with two pairs of slender acute apical processes, gonopore anteapical 
and lateral. 
Ground color of crown, anterior portion of pronotum, and scutellum, 
orange, crown with a diamond-shaped median black spot, scutellum heavily 
and variably marked with black, remainder of pronotum and forewings 
bluish-green except broad apical margins of wings which are black; face 
orange except most of clypeus and base of clypellus which are black; thoracic 
pleura and legs orange. 
Holotype male, Paraguay; one male and two females, ‘Rio Aguatal’’, 
Paraguay; one female, ‘Villa Elvira”, Paraguay (MMB). 
T. lateralis, n. sp. is readily separable from T. praecalva, n. sp., by its orange 
crown and face, and by the form of the male pygofer and aedeagus. 
Tantogonalia praecalva, NEW SPECIES 
Ficure 870 
Length 8.3-8.7 mm. Head with median length of crown from six-tenths to 
two-thirds interocular width and from slightly more than four-tenths to one- 
half transocular width, ocelli each approximately equidistant from median line 
of crown and adjacent anterior eye angle. Male pygofer with an apical con- 
cavity in lateral view, the resulting dorsal lobe longer than the ventral one, 
with a flat process arising from the ventral lobe and extending posteroven- 
trally, with one macroseta near apex of dorsal lobe; aedeagus shorter and 
broader than in T. dateralis, n. sp., with a pair of broad apical processes, gono- 
pore terminal. 
Crown greenish-yellow with a large black spot on disk and anterolateral 
margins black; anterior portion of pronotum and scutellum yellow to orange- 
yellow, remainder of pronotum and forewings dull green with an apical black 
border on forewings as in /ateralis; clypeus mostly black, remainder of face 
and thoracic pleura and legs yellow. 
Holotype male and one female, Palmira, Antioquia, Colombia, August 5, 
1955 (A. Saldarriaga), on coffee (RFC). One female, ‘‘Rio Aguatal”’, 
[Paraguay?] (MMB). Holotype in USNM. 
Distinguishing characters of 7. praecalva are discussed above in the descrip- 
tion of 7. lateralis, n. sp.
