description: Loneura altaquerensis n. sp. Male   
(Figs 29–33)  
 Diagnosis. Mesal lateral processes of the central sclerite of the hypandrium proximally broad, with margins converging to round apices (Fig. 32). It differs from the other species in the group by the shape of the hypandrium and by the shape of the phallosome endophallic sclerites (Fig. 33).   
 Color. Body light brown. Head light brown (Fig. 31), with an ochre band from each compound eye to the epistomal sulcus and ocellar triangle; genae dark brown; postgenae light brown. Compound eyes black, ocelli hyaline, with ochre centripetal crescents. Postclypeus light brown, with posterior ochre area V–shaped; anteclypeus and labrum light brown. Maxillary palps light brown, Mx4 dark brown. Antennae light brown, flagellomeres 1–3 with apices cream. Thorax pale brown, pronotum and tergal lobes of meso- and metathorax pale brown. Legs light brown, tarsi 2–3 dark brown, fore- and middle coxae with ochre spot basally; femora with distal brown spots. Wings hyaline (Figs 131, 132). Forewings (Fig. 29) pterostigma with proximal and distal brown bands; veins light brown, with dark brown areolae in setal insertions, a dark brown spot on vein ends at wing margin. Hindwings (Fig. 30) with a brown spot at vein ends. Abdomen light brown, clunium pale brown. Hypandrium light brown; epiproct and paraprocts cream. Phallosome brown, with endophallic sclerites dark brown.   
 Morphology. Head (Fig. 31): H/MxW: 1.48; H/d: 3.85; IO/MxW: 0.75. Vertex at the same level as the upper border of the compound eyes. Outer cusp of lacinial tips broad, with four short and widely rounded denticles. Mx4/ Mx2: 1.12. Forewings (Fig. 29): L/W: 2.58. Pterostigma: lp/wp: 4.43, areola postica tall, apically rounded: al/ah: 1.36, R4+5 sinuous, M five-branched, M5 forked. Hindwings (Fig. 30): l/w: 2.88; M two-branched. Hypandrium (Fig. 32): deeply cleft in the middle, posterior projections stout, blunt ended, each with a subapical macroseta on inner margin, mesal lateral processes broad, triangular. Phallosome V-shaped anteriorly, side struts slender; external parameres laminar, wide, apex rounded, bearing pores and sclerotized short teeth on the outer margins (Fig. 33); four pairs of endophallic sclerites, anterior pair elongate, lateral sclerites wide, with concave margins, tapered, directed posteriorly; mesal pair wide basally, mesal sclerite processes distally curved outward, distally fused to posterior sclerite, tapered and apically curved outward. Paraprocts oval, with distal setal fields; sensory fields with 22–24 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Epiproct semioval, with short and long setae.
