Diagnosis

Dicyphus hyalinipennis is recognized by the following combination of characters: macropters and brachypters in both sexes; body length 4.10–4.61 mm in macropterous males, 2.94 mm in brachypterous males; body length 4.47–4.77 mm in macropterous females, 3.18– 3.48 mm in brachypterous females; pale and dark morphs ( Fig. 3); always with frons+vertex with dark brown X-shaped marking; clypeus embrowned, with stramineous highlighting; mandibular plate stramineous; maxillary plates dark brown; propleuron with prominent shiny dark-brown transverse band; AI short, mostly stramineous to orange, with subbasal brown and subapical red stramineous annulations; AII mostly stramineous with subbasal and distal 1/4 brown annulations; corium with three light- to dark-brown spots, at corial fracture, middle of apical margin of endocorium and tip of cuneus; pygophore without large posteroventral brown spot; left paramere apophysis robust and short, with base of spatulate apex toothed (joining the apophysis in an acute angle) ( Fig. 10B), aedeagus with two endosomal lobes, with pair of large asymmetrical, arcuate endosomal lobal sclerites ( Fig. 14A).

Redescription

Males. Macropters and brachypters examined.

Coloration: Stramineous and dark morphs present ( Fig. 3). Stramineous morph. Head: mostly stramineous to pale yellowish green; frons+vertex with a short, X-shaped dark-brown marking, not extending beyond posterior margin of eyes; clypeus mostly dark brown with stramineous highlighting, sometimes paler overall; and maxillary plate embrowned; postocular margins of head with transverse brown band. Antennae: AI stramineous, with base narrowly whitish, subbasal dark-brown annulation and subapical red annulation; AII mostly stramineous with subbasal narrow dark-brown annulation, apical 1/4 dark brown. Pronotum: collar and disk whitish to stramineous; callosite region stramineous to pale green-yellowish, with medial regions of each callus sometimes embrowned. Thoracic pleura and sterna: propleuron pale stramineous, with medium to dark-brown transverse band; mesobasisternum dark brown, sometimes paler stramineous; mesepimeron and metepisternum including evaporative areas pale yellowish green. Mesoscutum: broadly orange, sometimes with lateral angles embrowned. Scutellum : lateral angles broadly pale stramineous to yellowish with brown stripe along midline. Hemelytra : translucent, mostly pale stramineous, sometimes with brown or red spotting associated with setae on corium; three pairs of faint red to brown spots, on corial fracture, apex of endocorium, and tip of cuneus; apex of wings in brachypters paler with faint red and brown spot apically. Abdomen: venter stramineous intermixed with brown highlighting. Dark morph. Mostly as in pale morph, with lateral facies of head, lateral regions of collar, callosite region and pronotal disk, medial and lateral regions of mesoscutum and lateral regions of abdominal sterna dark brown.

Structure: Head: interocular distance 1.21–1.58× greater than eye width in macropters, 1.56× in brachypters. Antennae: AI 1.28–1.54× longer than interocular distance in macropters, 1.34× in brachypters; AII 0.89–1.08× longer that the posterior width of pronotum in macropters, 1.07× longer in brachypters. Pronotum: pronotal disk 1.20–1.67× the callosite region in macropters, 0.86× in brachypters. Male genitalia: left paramere apophysis robust and short, with base of spatulate apex toothed (joining the

390 J. A. SANCHEZ AND G. CASSIS apophysis neck in an acute angle) ( Fig. 10B); aedeagus with two well-developed endosomal lobes, each lobe with large moderately arcuate lobal sclerite, lobal sclerites asymmetrical ( Fig. 14A).

Females. Macropters and brachypters examined. Coloration, vestiture, texture and structure mostly as in males; pale and dark morphs known. Female abdominal venter stramineous with dark-brown markings in pale morphs, more uniformly dark brown in dark morphs. Head: interocular distance 1.33–1.53× than eye width in macropters, 1.41–1.43× in brachypters. Antennae: AI 1.21–1.40× longer than interocular distance in macropters, 1.28–1.40× in brachypters; AII 0.89–0.97× length of posterior pronotal width in macropters, 1.04–1.11× in brachypters. Pronotum: disk 1.22–1.79× longer than callosite region in macropters, 0.87–0.99× in brachypters.
