Popis: | Xenophyes metoponcus Burckhardt, sp. nov. (Figs. 16, 17, 25, 31, 38, 45, 52, 59, 70, 71, 78, 84) Material examined. Holotype 3, New Zealand: WD, Lake Matheson, 105 m, 43 �� 26.622 ���S / 169 �� 58.111 ���E, 14.ii. 2010, (G. W. Gibbs) (dry mounted, NZAC). Paratypes. New Zealand: South Island: 7 3, 11 ��, 25 nymphs, same data as holotype (dry mounted and 70 % ethanol, MHNG, NHMB, NZAC); 1 ��, same but Lake Matheson, 2.xii. 2007 (J. Damgaard), JD# 1927 (ethanol, ZMUC); 2 3, 2 ��, WD, Gillespies Cook River Road, 120 m, 20.x. 1981, Weinmannia and tree fern litter (R. M. Emberson), 81 / 15 (dry mounted, LUNZ, NZAC); 5 3, 7 ��, 1 nymph, WD, Westland National Park, Canavans Knob, 140 m, 6.ii. 1989, moss in mixed podocarp/broadleaf forest (J. W. Early & R. M. Emberson), 89 / 4 (dry mounted, LUNZ, NZAC). Description. Adult. Coloration. Brown to dark brown with light areas on anterior rim of head and humeri, sometimes also along veins basally and in apical two-thirds; clavus dark brown to black like remainder of remigium. Newly emerged adults dirty whitish to yellowish. Structure. Body, in dorsal view, broadly ovoid. Head with strongly curved fore margin; anterior rim comparatively well delimited from membrane; areolae, in longitudinal body axis, relatively long; eyes strongly recessive; hind margin of eye and postero-lateral margin of head forming an obtuse angle or evenly rounded depression. Pronotum with distinct median longitudinal ridge, smooth posteriorly and postero-laterally. Paranota relatively large with widely curved margins; smooth postero-ventrally. Tegmen with vein M reduced basally, basal radial cell without faint additional veins in apical half of vein M+CuA. Male and female terminalia as in Figs. 31, 38, 45, 52, 59, 70, 71. Male anal tube conical, in dorsal view, widest in basal quarter, evenly narrowing to apex. Pygophore with comparatively short and narrow median posterior tooth; postero-lateral edges indistinctly angular. Parameres short, blunt apically. Aedeagus, in anterior view, with narrowly rounded head distally, narrowed subapically, and subquadrate antero-proximal lobes; posterior outline of neck, in profile, with distinct angle; spines on neck long, coarse and numerous. Female tergite 9 with ventral margin distinctly indented near middle. Ventral teeth of valvulae 1 small. Measurements and ratios in Tables 1 and 2. Fifth instar (Fig. 78). Anterior head margin strongly convex. Posterior lobes of abdominal segment 9 stout, blunt apically; ventrite 9 covered with setae but lacking microscopical spinules; rear margin of male genital capsule, in ventral view, ending medially more distally than laterally (Fig. 84). Measurements and ratios in Table 3. Etymology. From Greek �������������� = forehead and ����ĸ��ς = swelling, referring to the inflated fore margin of the head.
