Name
Caledonotrichia illiesi Sykora – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Caledonotrichia illiesi Sykora (1967: 585–595); Wells (1995: 229).
Revised diagnosis
In many respects males of Caledonotrichia illiesi resemble the smaller Caledonotrichia minuta sp. n., and Caledonotrichia bifida sp. n., having wings without scales and both lobes of gonopods are rounded, but are readily recognized by their large size, more robust in appearance, have thick brushes of short black setae dorsally on head and have elongate antennae about equal in length to body. In the male genitalia (Figs 21–22, 30–32) the subgenital process forms simple, straight sclerotised rods, and the elongate seta in the axil between the upper and lower lobes of each gonopod terminates in a round apical knob (arrow in Figs 21, 22). In the female terminalia (Fig. 71) abdominal sternite VII has a triangular prominence apico-medially, and a membranous collar; segment X is triangular.
Revised description, male
Head rounded in dorsal view, as in Caledonotrichia capensis sp. n. (Fig. 1). Antennae with 35–37 flagellomeres; flagellomeres (Fig. 20) elongate cylindrical, length about 2× width. Maxillary palps with basal 2 segments short and rounded, rest cylindrical: segment 3 about 4× maximum width, segment 4 length about 2× width, and segment 5 elongate slender, length almost 6n width. Forewing length, 2.1–3.0 mm (n=10). Wings without scales, forewing costa with brush of straight setae on proximal third, then longer, curved setae to tip of wing.
Additional information, female
Antennae with 33 flagellomeres. Forewing length, 2.0–3.2 mm (n=10).
