towards an acute, extended point at the apex (Fig. 5-4). In profile, slightly curved

ventrally at tip (Fig. 5-5). Median plate only slightly elevated (Fig. 5-5). Basal Plate:

Sides parallel at base, with a uniformly rounded tip (Fig. 5-6).

the TAMU insect collection, is a female specimen glued to a point with the following

labels: DOMINICA: St. Paul Par. Springfield Estate V-27-VI-12-1994 J. B. Woolley,

 (Figs. 5-7-5-10)

 Diagnosis. Male and female are black or dark brown. Each antennomere of the

antennal club is distinctly separated to form a serrated edge and the terminal antennomere

is truncate (Fig. 5-7). In males, the basal plate (Fig. 5-10) and median lobe (Fig. 5-8) are

easily distinguished from all other species.
