Pollex ( Bilobiana) silaui View in CoL Fibiger, new species
( Plate 6 View PLATE 6 , figure 2; female genit. plate 24, figure 2)
Material examined.
Holotype: female, Indonesia, Sumatra N, Huta Padang , 13.ii.2002, leg. and genit. prep. 4546 M. Fibiger. Coll. MF, to be deposited in ZMUC.
Diagnosis.
Wingspan: 11 mm.
Forewing: brown.
Transverse lines: black; terminal line marked by black dots between veins.
Reniform: distinct, yellow, outlined by black.
Hindwing: unicolorous brown with an indistinct black discal spot.
Underside: unicolorous brown.
Female genitalia.
7 th abdominal segment: heavily sclerotised, asymmetrical.
Anterior apophyses: length 1½ of posterior apophyses.
Position of ostium bursae: slightly above middle of 7 th segment, displaced to left.
Antrum: heavily sclerotised, basally narrow, medially abruptly broader until posterior end.
Ductus bursae: membranous, long, twice as long as corpus bursae.
Corpus bursae: globular.
Appendix bursae: arising anteriorly from ductus bursae immediately after antrum.
Differential diagnosis.
P. silaui differs from the other species by having antrum divided into two cylindrical tubes of different width. Pollex ( Bilobiana) balabaci Fibiger, new species
( Plate 6 View PLATE 6 , figure 3; male genit. plate 16, figure 3)
Material examined.
Holotype: male, Philippines, Balabac , Dalawan Bay, 10.x.1961, caught in Malaise-trap, leg. Noona Dan. Exp., 1961-62, genit. prep. 3539 M. Fibiger. Coll. ZMUC.
Paratypes: 1 male with same data as holotype, but and genit. prep. 3503 M. Fibiger. Coll. MF .
Diagnosis.
Wingspan: 11 mm.
Forewing: narrow, blackish-brown.
Transverse lines: black; terminal line marked by black dots between veins.
Reniform: distinct, whitish grey, outlined by black.
Hindwing: unicolorous dark grey with an almost invisible black discal spot.
Underside: unicolorous dark grey.
Hindleg: with large, black scent tufts.
Male genitalia.
Tegumen: narrow.
Vinculum: short, stout.
Saccus: U-shaped, short.
Fultura superior: dorsally and ventrally Y-shaped with long narrow arms, fused medially with tegumen, ventrally with juxta-anellus, and to basal part of valve.
Valve: shorter than wide.
Ampulla: long, club-like, subapically ventral directed; densely setose with long hair-like setae bent inwards. Pollex : long, finger-like, broadest medially; densely setose with long hair-like setae bent inwards.
Digitus: huge, tapered, curved, directed ventrally, apically pointed.
Juxta-anellus plate: round, as wide as high.
Phallus: long, bent at ductus ejaculatorius, curved and tapered towards apex; coecum short and broad.
Vesica: with a long, slightly curved, spine-like cornutus.
Differential diagnosis.
P. balabaci differs from the other species by the shape of the fultura superior and the long, curved cornutus.
