Resumen
DURAN-LUZ, Juana; IBANEZ-BERNAL, Sergio y OMAD, Guillermo Hugo. First record of Neurosystasis Satchell in Mexico, with the description of one new species (Diptera, Psychodidae), and the validation of Chuspilepia Omad, Mangudo & Gleiser as subgenus. Acta Zool. Mex [online]. 2021, vol.37, e3712361. Epub 21-Feb-2022. ISSN 2448-8445. https://doi.org/10.21829/azm.2021.3712361.
Neurosystasis Satchell is newly recorded in Mexico by means of the description of a new species. Specimens captured in a tropical deciduous forest in southern Puebla, central Mexico, were examined and determined as a species new to science. The male and female are described based on morphological characteristics. Neurosystasis longistylis sp. nov. is similar in appearance to Neurosystasis saltenia (Omad, Mangudo & Gleiser, 2015), but is readily distinguished based on characters of the head, wing, and male genitalia. In both species, R2+3 is attached to vein R4, the wing membrane is infuscate with dark spots on vein apices, and lacks sensory organs near the apex of Sc, characters not present in other species of Neurosystasis, and for that reasons we proposed the recovery of Chuspilepia from its synonym and validate it as a subgenus of Neurosystasis to include both continental species.
