Polana (Polana) languida Domahovski, 2025, sp. nov.

Polana (Polana) languida sp. nov. (Figs 1E, F, 5, 6) Diagnosis. Style (Fig. 5J), in lateral view, blade nearly straight; ventral margin serrated; apex truncated. Aedeagus (Fig. 5K, L) with pair of basolateral processes short, weakly sclerotized, extending to half length of shaft; shaft curved basally and straight distally, cylindrical; apex with pair of ventral processes, straight and directed ventrally. Measurements. Holotype male: total length 6.0 mm. Paratypes: males 5.8–6.1 mm (n = 17); females 6.5–6.9 mm (n = 18). Coloration. Head and thorax (Figs 1E, F, 5A–D) yellowish-brown. Crown (Fig. 5A) coronal suture black. Face (Fig. 5B) with yellow irregular maculae on lorum and between eye and frons. Pronotum (Fig. 5A) with six to eight black maculae near anterior margin and some irregular yellowish portions. Proepimeron (Fig. 5C) with a black strip below the pronotal carina yellow. Mesonotum (Fig. 5A) with two pairs of yellow spots, one on basolateral corner and one near scutoscutellar suture. Forewing (Figs 1E, F, 5D) yellowish-brown; veins weakly brown outlined, mostly on apical half; costal margin with yellow macula on basal third; apex of clavus smoky; black markings on base of clavus, cross veins of discal cells, apex of A1 and Pcu veins, and cross veins of apical cells. Description. Similar to the description of Polana inflexa sp. nov. except: Head (Fig. 5B), in ventral view, clypeus slightly inflated, 1.3x wider than long at base, lateral margins sigmoid, strongly convergent apically. Forewing (Fig. 5D) M vein with segment after the divergence between R+M and before the cross vein m-cu1 more than 3x longer than the length of m-cu1. Male terminalia. Sternite VIII (Fig. 5E) rectangular, 1.6x longer than wide; posterior margin straight. Valve (Fig. 5F) 2x wider than long; integument thickening present only on anterior margin; posterior margin rounded. Pygofer (Fig. 5G) 1.3x longer than high; basodorsal processes with subapical tooth; macrosetae dispersed on dorsoapical quadrant; ventral margin straight; apex wide, broadly rounded. Subgenital plate (Fig. 5G) extending almost to apical portion of pygofer; in ventral view (Fig. 5H) ovate, outer margin rounded with short setae on apical half and some hair-like setae on basal half; apex slightly tapered and rounded. Connective (Fig. 5I) T-shaped, extending to half length of style blade; stem wider apically; dorsal keel developed. Style (Fig. 5I), in dorsal view, outer lobe reduced; in lateral view (Fig. 5J) blade nearly straight; ventral margin serrated; apex truncated with small process directed dorsally. Aedeagus (Fig. 5K, L) with preatrium short; dorsal apodeme rounded; pair of basolateral processes short, weakly sclerotized, extending to half length of shaft, tapering to acute apex; shaft curved basally and straight distally, cylindrical; apex with pair of ventral processes, straight and directed ventrally. Female terminalia. Sternite VII (Fig. 6A, B) 1.8x wider than long; posterolateral corners rounded; posterior margin excavated laterad of rounded median lobe. Pygofer (Fig. 6A, B) about 1.7x longer than maximum height; macrosetae dispersed on dorsoapical fourth and ventroapical half; apex rounded. Internal sternite VIII membranous. Ovipositor similar to the description of Polana inflexa sp. nov. except: First valvifer (Fig. 6C) 1.3x higher than long, almost square-shaped; outer surface with many dentiform cuticular projections. First valvula (Fig. 6C, D) 6.5x higher than long; basal portion weakly produced anterad and rounded. Second valvula (Fig. 6E, F) 4.5x higher than long; dorsal margin with few very small teeth subapically. Gonoplac (Fig. 6G, H), about 2.9x longer than high; dorsoapical margin strongly declivous. Etymology. The epithet comes from the Latin word “ languidus ” meaning faint, weak. It refers to the weakly sclerotized basolateral processes of aedeagus. Material examined. Holotype male, BRAZIL, MATO GROSSO: “ Brasil, MT, Novo Mundo,\ Pq. Est. do Cristalino,\ 09.4517ºS 55.8396ºW,\ 240m, sweep, 21–25.vi.\ 2017, A.C. Domahovski ” (DZUP).

The shape of the style and aedeagus are most similar to those of P. squarela and P. scruta, but the new species can be easily separated due to the aedeagus with basolateral pair of processes shorter, extending only the shaft midlength, whereas in P. squarela and P. scruta these processes are long, extending to the shaft apex, and curved ventrally.
