- <p><b><i>Steleops clavatus</i> sp. nov.</b></p><p>(Figs 207–213)</p><p><b>Diagnosis.</b> Belonging to the <i>mendivili</i> group, unlike <i>Steleops mendivili</i> and <i>S. furcatus</i> <b>sp. nov.</b>, presents the arms of the clunium apically thickened (Fig. 211), hypandrium with the medial band covered with pointed papillae (Fig. 212), forewing with Rs-M veins fused in a short distance; phallosome more widened and with shorter phallobase than in <i>S. furcatus</i> (Fig. 213). As in <i>S. furcatus</i>, it has a symmetrical hypandrium, but the medial band does not have elongated acuminate processes and the denticles are more elongated and densely distributed (Fig. 212).</p><p><b>Male. Color</b> (in plate and 80% ethanol). Head (Fig. 209) cream yellow with brown spots on frons, postclypeus and ocellar tubercle. Compounds eyes dark ochre. Forewings (Fig. 200) hyalines, pterostigma light brown, veins brown. Hindwings (Fig. 208) hyalines with veins brown. Legs pale brown. Terminalia abdominal pale brown.</p><p><b>Morphology.</b> As in diagnosis, plus the following: Head (Fig. 209): H/MxW: 1.26; compound eyes large, pedunculated, almost rounded, H/D: 2.06; IO/MxW: 0.56. Vertex U–shaped wide, below upper level of compound eyes. Outer cusp of lacinial tips with three broad denticles; Mx4/Mx2: 1.20. Forewings (Fig. 207): L/W: 3.18. Pterostigma widened medially: lp/wp: 3.88, areola postica: al/ah: 1.91. Hindwings (Fig. 208): l/w: 3.29.Arms of the clunium on each side of the paraprocts, widened apically, club-shaped, covered with small spicules. Hypandrium symmetrical (Fig. 212), with a tongue-shaped medial band, distally bilobed and with numerous elongated finger-like papillae and spicules on the proximal dorsal surface, with hypandrium arms fused apically with the medial band. Phallosome rhomboid symmetrical and widened (Fig. 213), apically with aedeagus widened, parameres apparently lateral, phallobase short anteriorly, basally narrow. Epiproct (Fig. 210) projected on the clunium, rhomboid, widened distally with angled posterior margin, proximally narrow and with setae and microsetae. Paraprocts somewhat oval (Fig. 211), with setae as illustrated, with long, inwardly curved, lateroapical process; sensory fields with 24 trichobothria on basal rosettes.</p><p><b>Measurements (microns).</b> FW: 3175, HW: 2300, F: 775, T: 1475, t1: 700, t2: 150, ctt1: 35, f1: 900, f2: 1100, f3: 900, Mx4: 180, IO: 320, d: 300, D: 350, IO/d: 1.07, PO: 0.86</p><p><b>Material studied.</b> Holotype Male.
