Lygistorrhina brasiliensis Edwards, 1932
Lygistorrhina brasiliensis (after Edwards, 1932)
Morphology:Closely related to L. urichi Edw. (Trinidad), differing as follows: - Antennae with scape and first four or five flagellar segments yellowish, contrasting with remainder of flagellum, which is dark; each flagellar segment with one or two dorsal bristly hairs which are somewhat longer than the segment and more conspicuous than in L. urichi. Thorax less shining. Hypopygium with style distinctly shorter than coxite, not equal in length. Wings practically clear, the dark cloud at the tip smaller than in L. urichi and only very faintly indicated.
