Antennal segments 1 and 2 yellow, segment 3 yellow basally, gradually darkening to dark brown apex, segments 4–10 dark brown. Pronotum whitish with lateral sutures brown. Mesopraescutum pale yellow along posterior margins. Mesoscutum with two dark yellow longitudinal stripes on either side, the outer one black posteriorly. Mesoscutellum and metascutellum whitish. Metapostnotum with dark brown spots medially and laterally. Pleura whitish, propleurites black dorsally. Mesosternum brown. Forewing colourless, with black spot at base of C + Sc and basally on anal cell; veins and pterostigma brown. Fore and mid legs with femur dark yellow, tibia and tarsi brown; hind leg with femur dark brown, tibia and tarsi pale yellow. Abdomen brown with yellow spot medially, narrowing to apex; intersegmental membrane straw-coloured. Terminalia dark brown, parameres black, subgenital plate pale yellow dorsally. — Female (Fig. 3 B) yellow with only a few black markings. Discal foveae dark yellow. Pronotum with lateral indentations dark yellow. Meso- and metanotum as in male but markings dark yellow, with outermost stripes on mesoscutum black posteriorly. Forewing as in male but pterostigma colourless. Pleura as in male. Fore and mid legs with femora pale yellow, tibiae dark yellow, and tarsi brown, hind leg pale yellow. Terminalia yellow, apex of proctiger black. Structure. Antenna 4.0–4.1 × as long as head width; segment 3 1.3–1.4 × as long as segment 4. Forewing (Fig. 3 G) 4.5–5.3 × as long as head width, and 2.6 × as long as wide, pterostigma long and narrow, ratio a / b 0.9–1.0, cell cu 1 long and flat, length / height ratio 3.3. Terminalia. Male. Paramere (Fig. 3 C, D) bifid, clavate, outer lobe rounded anteriorly and angular posteriorly. Apical dilatation of aedeagus with small blunt apico-ventral hook (Fig. 3 E), 1.2 × as long as paramere. — Female (Fig. 3 F). Terminalia short and cuneate, dorsal outline of proctiger slightly concave; proctiger as long as head width, and 2.4 × as long as subgenital plate. Measurements (in mm). BL 2 ♂ 3.6–5.0 (4.36 ± 0.74), 2 ♀ 5.3–5.4 (5.31 ± 0.08); HW ♂ 0.85, ♀ 0.82; AL ♂ 3.44, ♀ 3.39; FL ♂ 3.8, ♀ 4.36; FW ♂ 1.47, ♀ 1.67; PL ♂ 0.24; DL ♂ 0.28; FP ♀ 0.8; FS ♀ 0.34. Distribution. Colombia: Bogotá (Burckhardt et al. 2013). Host plant. Most adults (types and material at hand) were collected on Cedrela montana Turcz. (Meliaceae). Mastigimas species develop, as far as known, on Cedrela, suggesting that C. montana is a host. Comments. Mastigimas colombianus was described from two males and two females collected in Bogotá (Burckhardt et al. 2013). As more material is available from this study, a redescription of the species is provided here. The females in the material at hand fit the original description perfectly but the male paramere is slightly variable with respect to the shape of the outer lobe. As in the two type specimens, the paramere in the material at hand is strongly sclerotised which seems characteristic for the species.
