Popis: | Purusha reversa (Hope, 1843) Figs 1E, 4, 13���18 Eurybrachis (sic!) reversa Hope, 1843: 134 [described], pl. xii fig. 8 [habitus illustrated]. Purusha rubromaculata Distant, 1906b: 204 [described], syn. nov. Eurybrachys reversa ��� Schaum 1850: 71 [listed in the genus Eurybrachys]. ��� Walker 1851: 382 [listed]. ��� Atkinson 1886: 22 [redescribed as ���species of uncertain position���]. Messena reversa ��� Gerstaecker 1895: 33 [allied to Purusha paradoxa (Gerstaecker, 1895)], 34 [transferred to Messena]. Purusha reversa ��� Distant 1906a: 236 [described, scarce species], fig. 102 [habitus illustrated (illustration from Hope 1843)]; 1906b: 203 [type species of Purusha], 204 [catalogued]. ��� Metcalf 1956: 8 [catalogued]. Purusha rubromaculata ��� Metcalf 1956: 9 [catalogued]. Diagnosis Male Easily recognized by the following combination of characters: (1) tegmina with numerous small, round, black spots on membrane, more or less arranged in rows parallel to apical margin (Fig. 15 A���B); (2) posterior wings brown with numerous small, black-brown spots on apical half (Fig. 15 A���B); (3) head, pro- and mesonotum brown, concolorous (Fig. 15C); (4) ventral margin of gonostyli without internobasal process projecting posteriorly (Fig. 17B); (5) anterolateral and posterolateral spines of phallus about the same size (Fig. 17G). Female Immediately recognized by the combination of the following characters: (1) tegmina with conspicuous white waxy spot at basal third, along costal margin, but without minute black spots or brown lines on membrane (Figs 13A, 14A, 16A); (2) posterior wings with numerous brown spots, sometimes merging together, more or less arranged in rows parallel to apical margin (Figs 13A, 14A, 16A); (3) head, pro- and mesonotum brown, concolorous (Figs 13C, 14E, 16B). Differential diagnosis Male Easily separated from males of P. pulverosa and P. vietnamica sp. nov. (and probably P. bellissima sp. nov.) by combination of characters: (1)���(3) of diagnosis; from P. paradoxa, it is better separated based on characters (4)���(5) of diagnosis: (4) ventral margin of gonostyli with internobasal process projecting posteriorly in P. paradoxa (Fig. 8B); (2) anterolateral spine of phallus smaller than posterolateral one in P. paradoxa (Fig. 8F). Etymology The specific names are derived from the Latin adjectives ��� reversa ���, meaning ���inverted���, and ��� rubromaculata ���, juxtaposition of ��� ruber ���, meaning ���red���, and ��� maculatus ���, meaning ���spotted���, and referring to the reddish spots on the tegmina.

Description Measurements and ratios ♂: LT (n = 1): 22.6 mm; LTg/BTg = 2.1; BV/LV = 4.15; BF/LF = 1.65; LP+LM/BT = 0.7. ♀: LT (n = 4): 29.4 mm (26.6���31.5); LTg/BTg = 2.1; BV/LV = 4.4; BF/LF = 1.66; LP+LM/BT = 0.7. Male genitalia (Fig. 17) Pygofer with lateral portion of posterior margin strongly projecting in subtriangular laminate process directed posteriorly in lateral view and slightly laterally in ventral view; process narrowly rounded apically; ventral half of posterior margin excavate in lateral view; ventral portion of posterior margin straight in ventral view; dorsal portion of pygofer abruptly narrowing with posterior margin strongly excavate; anterior margin sinuate in lateral view (Fig. 17 A���B). Anal tube large, broadly obovate, widest at about mid-length, dorsoventrally flattened; apical margin slightly emarginate in dorsal view; lateral margin bisinuate, very broadly rounded on distal ⅓ in dorsal view; lateral margin strongly undulate in lateral view; anal column at basal �� (Fig. 17A, D). Gonostyli subrectangular in lateral view, with prominent apicodorsal process; apicodorsal process laminate, projecting medially and armed with one tooth at medioanterior angle, one tooth at medioposterior angle and one strong hook laterally, curved anteroventrally on apical portion; ventral margin emarginate on distal 4/5, leaving large, parallel-sided central opening in ventral view (Fig. 17 A���C). Phallobase robust, about as long as broad in dorsal view, with rather short, blunt basolateral process directed posterolaterally and elongate, apical, bifurcate process ventrally, sinuate in lateral view and directed postroventrally; dorsally to bifurcate process, slightly longer, apically blunt process directed posteriorly (Fig. 17 E���G). Phallus with very complicated set of intricate processes: basal strong spine directed laterally; trispinose lateral process with basidorsal spine elongate and directed dorsally, posteroventral spine elongate, about as long as basidorsal one, directed dorsally and slightly curved anteriorly on distal portion, and apicodorsal spine incurving, sinuate, projecting mediodorsally and slightly anteriorly on distal portion; mediodorsally, pair of laterally compressed processes about as high as long in lateral view and with lateral ridged process (Fig. 17 E���G). Distribution Bangladesh, Thailand and Peninsular Malaysia (Fig. 4). Biology The species was observed sitting on leaves of plants and shrubs in southern Thailand (L. Day pers. com., 2015). When disturbed, the specimen showed a specific behaviour, lifting the wings at perpendicular angle (Fig. 18D). Published as part of Constant, J��r��me, 2020, Revision of the Eurybrachidae (XV).
