Description
Summary:Abaristophora kolaensis Disney, n. sp. Figs 14–19 Material examined: HOLOTYPE 3, “ RUSSIA, Kola Peninsula, 2 km S. of Monchegorsk / in yellow pan trap / 16–26.vii. 2010 / M. Kozlov” (MZUC, on slide). Description. Male. Frons brown and clearly broader than long, with dense but very small microtrichia and numerous strong hairs. The pre-ocellar bristles are further apart than the antials and lower on the frons than the mediolaterals. The anterolaterals are higher on the frons than the antials and close to the eye margins. Postpedicel brown, lacking subcutaneous pit sensilla and shaped as in Fig. 14. Palp a slightly dusky yellow, 0.24 mm long and about 5 times as long as greatest breadth (viewed from above), with 6 bristles (the longest being 0.13 mm long) and 4 times as many hairs. Labrum straw yellow (but appears brown against the darker basiproboscis) and only about 0.11 mm long and 0.06–0.07 mm wide (compared with maximum width of the base of the postpedicel of 0.13 to 0.14 mm). Labella pale with only a few small spinules in addition to hairs. Thorax brown with 3 bristles on notopleuron, the most anterior being the strongest. Scutellum with an anterior pair of hairs and posterior pair of bristles. Mesopleuron with a dozen hairs close behind the anterior spiracle. Abdomen with brown tergites and venter. The hairs of the tergites sparse but longer posteriorly on T 1, laterally and posteriorly on T 2 and at the posterior margins of T 3 to T 6. Hypopygium brown and as shown in Figs 15, 16, and lateral microsculpture as in Fig. 19 (similar to that of A. arctophila shown in Fig. 10). Legs mainly brown except for yellow fore tibiae and all tarsi. Fore tibia with 15 near dorsal small spines, the most basal being the longest, and similar numerous anteroventral spines (Fig. 17). Fore tarsus with a posterodorsal hair palisade on segments 1–4 and segment 5 a little longer than 4. Mid tibia with a near dorsal hair palisade extending almost 0.8 time its length, with a near dorsal bristle just before end of first quarter and a ...
