Name

Terra, 1995 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

Type-genus

Antemna Stål, 1877.

Diagnosis

Males have a medial ocellar process that originates posteriorly to the ocelli but anterior to the postfrontal sulcus. The dorsal margin of the forefemora at least partially produced, forming a lamellar projection. Forefemora with four discoidal spines. Meso- and metathoracic legs bearing a posteroventral sub-apical lobe originating from an expansion of the keel running along the margin of the femur. Abdomen of the females swollen, almost as wide as long.

1		Five posteroventral forefemoral spines. Dorsal expansion of forefemur extending to femoral apex (Fig. 7). Forewing of females with a spot on the center of the discoidal area. Apofisi falloide of male genitalia with the anterior apex recurved dorsally (Fig. 12). Processo ventrale of the right phallomere longer than wide (Fig. 13)     Hondurantemna gen. n.
–		Four posteroventral forefemoral spines. Dorsal expansion of forefemur ending abruptly before femoral apex (Fig. 19). Forewing of females with a spot on the border of the discoidal and costal areas. Apofisi falloide of male genitalia with the anterior apex not recurved dorsally (Fig. 20). Processo ventrale of the right phallomere wider than long (Fig. 21)     Antemna
