Viadana (Viadana) View in CoL ? lobata

( Brunner-Wattenwyl, 1878)

( Figs 100–102 View Figs 95–107 )

Material studied. PERU: 2 females, Junin Department, Satipo Prov. , ~ 25 km SE of Satipo Town , environs of Rio Venado Vill., 11.11552°S, 74.46307°W, 1000–1200 m, primary/secondary forest, at light, 5–9 December 2017, A. Gorochov, G. Irisov;

Remarks. The specimen is in accordance to the original description of this species which was described from one female only ( Brunner-Wattenwyl 1878: “ Peru ”). Its type locality is very wide, and this description is insufficient for exact species determination. However, the above-mentioned female is with a very large and rather flat genital plate having a pair of moderately long and apically rounded lobules ( Figs 101, 102 View Figs 95–107 ), and Brunner-Wattenwyl wrote that this plate in his type is “ampla, compressa, in lobos rotundatos producta” ( Brunner-Wattenwyl 1878: 304). Colouration of this female is almost light brown with reddish tinge ( Fig. 100 View Figs 95–107 ) and similar to that of one of females (not types) depicted as this species in OSF; its genital plate is similar to that of females of V. (V.) obliqua and V. (V.) parobliqua but narrower, with roundly obtuse posterior lobes (in V. obliqua and V. parobliqua , these lobes are almost angular) and without distinct dorsolateral projections (for comparison see Figs 98, 99, 101, 102, 105, 106 View Figs 95–107 ). Thus, we can determine this female as V. (V.) lobata in question.
