Tropidopsilus ruber Kawai & Chemyreva 2025, comb. nov.

Tropidopsilus ruber (Buhl, 1997), comb. nov. Fig. 7A–H Material examined. Holotype of Masnerolyta ruber: “ ARGENTINA, T.d. Fuego / 34: Ushuaia / Lapataia, 20 m / 29. i. 1979 / Mission Cientifica Danesa”, “ ZMUC/ 00021917 ”, “ MASNEROLYTA / RUBER/ Peter Buhl det. 1995” (NHMD). Other labels are in Fig. 7C. Diagnosis. Distance between toruli 0.3 times as long as diameter of torulus; female antenna weakly incrassate apically with F1 as long as F2 and F3 measured together; F10–F12 as long as wide (all other antennomeres elongate) in dorsal view and about 1.5 times as wide as А1 (Fig. 7A); scutellar disc not humped, with weak posterior mesoscutellar sulcus; mesopleuron without subalar bridge, with distinct epicnemial bridge and epicnemial pit; metascutellum with short spine medially; parastigma, marginal vein and radial cell almost equal to each other (Fig. 7H); Т2 anteriorly with short three medial furrow and lateral impression (Fig. 7E, G). This species is very close to Tropidopsilus laticeps Kieffer and differs from it in the following: antennae incrassate (filiform in T. laticeps); scutellar disk moderately convex and longer than anterior scutellar pit (strongly convex and shorter than anterior scutellar pit in T. laticeps); spine on metascutellum short (long in T. laticeps); radial cell wide and long, longer than marginal vein (small and narrow, shorter than marginal vein in T. laticeps); base of T2 with short furrows (with longer furrows in T. laticeps). Distribution. Argentina (Buhl 1997). Biology. Unknown.

Abstract

Tropidopsilus ruber (Buhl, 1997), comb. nov. Fig. 7A–H Material examined. Holotype of Masnerolyta ruber: “ ARGENTINA, T.d. Fuego / 34: Ushuaia / Lapataia, 20 m / 29. i. 1979 / Mission Cientifica Danesa”, “ ZMUC/ 00021917 ”, “ MASNEROLYTA / RUBER/ Peter Buhl det. 1995” (NHMD). Other labels are in Fig. 7C. Diagnosis. Distance between toruli 0.3 times as long as diameter of torulus; female antenna weakly incrassate apically with F1 as long as F2 and F3 measured together; F10–F12 as long as wide (all other antennomeres elongate) in dorsal view and about 1.5 times as wide as А1 (Fig. 7A); scutellar disc not humped, with weak posterior mesoscutellar sulcus; mesopleuron without subalar bridge, with distinct epicnemial bridge and epicnemial pit; metascutellum with short spine medially; parastigma, marginal vein and radial cell almost equal to each other (Fig. 7H); Т2 anteriorly with short three medial furrow and lateral impression (Fig. 7E, G). This species is very close to Tropidopsilus laticeps Kieffer and differs from it in the following: antennae incrassate (filiform in T. laticeps); scutellar disk moderately convex and longer than anterior scutellar pit (strongly convex and shorter than anterior scutellar pit in T. laticeps); spine on metascutellum short (long in T. laticeps); radial cell wide and long, longer than marginal vein (small and narrow, shorter than marginal vein in T. laticeps); base of T2 with short furrows (with longer furrows in T. laticeps).
