All paratypes labeled “Paratype Arenivaga pumila Hopkins 2012” [blue label with black border].

Etymology

The name is an adjective in the nominative singular. This species is named from the Latin meaning small or dwarfish because of its small size.

Distribution

This species is found throughout Baja California Sur, Mexico. See Fig. 131.

Diagnosis

Arenivaga pumila is easily distinguished by its small size. It is the smallest in overall size of the Arenivaga identified to date, though Arenivaga ricei is shorter in total length than some specimens of pumila.

Description

Male. Measurements. Holotype TL = 14.2 mm, GW = 7.0 mm, PW = 4.16 mm, PL = 3.13 mm, TL/GW = 2.03, PL/PW = 0.75. EW = 0.05 mm; OW = 0.20 mm. Among paratypes range of TL 10.6–14.6 mm; range of GW 4.9–7.0 mm; range of PW 4.02–4.27 mm; range of PL 2.80–3.14 mm.
Head. Two ocelli large, ovoid and protruding (0.30 ? 0.25 mm); vertex dark brown; interocellar space concave, dark brown. Posterior frons medium brown, concave; anterior frons light brown, bulbous, posterior margin with medial point; light brown anteclypeus. See Fig. 129d.
Pronotum. Pronotum translucent waxy beige; dorsal surface of pronotum with short orange-brown setae; pronotal pattern light to medium orange-brown or medium brown “panther face”; no discernible detail; no aura. See Fig. 129c.
Body. Wing brace absent. Two tarsal claws present. Legs and body light orange-brown; subgenital plate light orange-brown; asymmetrical with long apex pointed, short apex rounded. See Fig. 129b.
Forewings. Wings extended beyond abdominal apex (up to 40% of total wing length); blotchy medium orange-brown to medium brown; surface translucent, matte or with slight sheen. See Fig. 129a.
Genitalia. Right dorsal phallomere composed of lightly sclerotized, bulbous lobe, articulated with right ventral phallomere on lateral side; central field lightly sclerotized, deeply cupped; punctate as approaching medial edge which is toothed and has central concavity. Small central sclerite in two parts, lightly sclerotized, finely punctate; first part concave with slight anterior bulge, posterior end connecting with dorsal side of right dorsal phallomere; second part small lightly sclerotized square sitting adjacent to bulge of first part; attached to anterior end of left phallomere. Articulation between right phallomeres extends into right ventral phallomere consisting of punctate to shagreened medially projecting lobe with central indentation; anteriorly narrow gap followed by shagreened flange. Folded anterior portion of left phallomere dramatically modified into setose, medially projecting, scoop shape. Genital hook with moderate extension to pointed head and moderate hook; arm with distinct bend. See Fig. 130.

Habitat and natural history

All life history elements remain unobserved.
