Micrurus surinamensis nattereri Schmidt, 1952, Fieldiana, Zoology, 34, 29
Holotype: Senckenbergische Naturforschende Gesellschaft, Frankfurt, number 20708, a female from a locality between Guaramaco and San Fernando de Atabapo in upper Orinoco River, Venezuela, collected by G. Hübner in 1895 [not examined].
Diagnosis: Distinguished from other species of the genus (except from M. surinamensis) by frontal scale narrower than supraoculars; only one supralabial (4th) contacting the eye; head flattened with nostrils and eyes directed upwards; process pseudocoronoid extremely developed; distinguished from M. surinamensis by having 180–195 (instead of 156–174) ventrals in males and 193–215 (instead of 169–187) ventrals in females; supratemporals reaching only the posterior portion of exoccipitals rather than extending well beyond exoccipitals in M.surinamensis; posterior portion of parietal bone blunter than in M. surinamensis which has a conspicuous sharp projection in this region.
Description and color in preservative: Scutellation and color pattern are like to Micrurus surinamensis.
Skull: General osteological features are like to Micrurus surinamensis, except that supratemporals reach only the posterior portion of exoccipitals; posterior portion of parietal bone is blunter than in M. surinamensis; the angle formed by the point of articulation of the dentary with surangular is of approximately 20o.
Variation: Largest male 570 mm SVL, 80 mm TL; largest female 605 mm SVL, 69 mm TL; ventrals 180–195 (x = 187.3; SD = 4.65; N = 8) in males; 193–206 (x = 197.6; SD = 5.13; N = 5) in females; subcaudals 33–41 (x = 38.6; SD = 2.62; N = 8) in males; 30–38 (x = 34.0; SD = 3.8) in females; supralabials 7–8 (x = 7.2; SD = 0.42; N = 10); infralabials 7–8 (x = 7.1; SD = 0.3; N = 11); temporals 1+2 (N = 17 sides), 1+3 (N = 3 sides); number of triads 6–8 (x = 7.2; SD = 0.8; N = 13); width of the central triad at the level of the midbody 5–10 scales (x = 8.0; SD = 1.41; N = 9); width of interspaces 6–12 scales (x = 8.8; SD = 1.92; N = 9); hemipenis (in situ) extends 13–15 subcaudal scales, and the retractor muscle extends 10–25 subcaudal scales.
Distribution (fig. 10): Distributed along the Equatorial forest associated to upper Orinoco and Negro Rivers, from southern Venezuela and Colombia to northern Brazil.

Lepanthes acrogenia

description: Lepanthes acrogenia Luer & R.Escobar (1991: 94) (Figure 4A).
Type:— COLOMBIA. Nariño: Epiphytic in cloud forest above Ricaurte, alt. 1600 m, 3 Nov 1979, C. Luer et al. 4624 (holotype: SEL).
Examined specimen: ECUADOR. Carchi: Reserva Dracula, coordinates omitted for conservation purposes, 1400 m, 30 Jul 2021, M. F. Monteros MFM216 (QCNE).
Distribution and ecology: Lepanthes acrogenia was previously known from the southwest of Colombia, in the department of Nariño. This species grows in cloud forests at 1600 m (Luer & Thoerle 2012). Few records have been reported in the literature for this species, and the most recent ones have been documented on internet platforms such as Flickr.com (https://www.flickr.com/photos/semoreno/27422277878), also from Nariño. Recently L. acrogenia was recorded from the cloud forests of northwestern Ecuador in the Carchi province from 1400 to 2000 m of elevation (Figure 5), extending the distribution of this species 40 km to the south of the type locality and rising 400 m above the previous record from Colombia (Figure 3). In northwestern Ecuador, Lepanthes acrogenia has been observed blooming in situ between June and July.
Taxonomic Discussion: Lepanthes acrogenia is characterized by the long-pedicellate, distichous raceme borne on the top of a narrowly ovate leaf; the orange to dark red, ciliate sepals with denticulate margins; the externally spiculatecarinate veins; the deeply cucullate dorsal sepal; the narrowly triangular, free, and spreading lateral sepals. The petals are purple, cellular-glandular, transversely bilobed, the upper lobe is obtuse, much larger than the lower lobe. The connectives are broad with thickened margins forming the blades of the lip, and the appendix is large and fleshy, descending downward from the body (Luer & Thoerle 2012). The morphological features of the known populations of L. acrogenia from northwestern Ecuador are generally similar to the Colombian populations. Nevertheless, Luer & Thorle (2012) described the petals of L. acrogenia as cellular-glandular, whereas the petals of the analyzed Ecuadorian specimens are pubescent.

Female aptera. Body yellowish brown, anterior third of head brown with remainder yellow, pronotum brownish yellow, tube yellow on distal third before grey band at apex; femora brown, mid and hind tibiae and tarsi clear yellow; antennal segments I–II yellow, III brownish yellow, IV–VIII brown; major setae shaded.
Head without sculpture except on posterior third; eyes small but distinctly prolonged ventrally, ocelli close together (Fig. 5); postocular setae long and capitate; maxillary stylets with moderately wide loop within prothorax. Suture between antennal segments VII–VIII present on ventral surface only. Pronotum transverse, almost without sculpture, with 5 pairs of capitate major setae, notopleural sutures complete; fore tarsal tooth less than half as long as tarsal width. Prosternal ferna not meeting medially; mesopresternum transverse but slender medially, mesoeusternal anterior margin entire; metathoracic sternopleural suture long and slender. Mesonotal setae small. Metanotum with concentric sculpture medially (Fig. 21), major setae small arising medially, anterior third with two pairs of minor setae. Pelta reticulate, broadly triangular with truncate apex; wing-retaining setae minute and straight, major setae long and capitate; tergite IX setae long and finely acute; tube shorter than head (Fig. 14).
Measurements (holotype female in microns). Body length 3000. Head, length 400; width behind eyes 300; postocular setae 125. Pronotum, length 200; width 400; major setae: am 80, aa 55, ml 55, epim 70, pa 95. Tergite IX setae: S1 240, iS 50, S2 225. Tube length 225. Antennal segments III–VI [VII–VIII] length 110, 100, 85, 75, [95].
Male aptera. Similar to female except, ocelli absent; fore femora swollen, fore tarsal tooth about as long as tarsal width; sternites V–VII with weak areas of reticulate sculpture.
Measurements (paratype male in microns). Body length 2800. Tergite IX setae: S1 200, iS 55, S2 50.
Material studied. Holotype female aptera, Queensland, Springbrook, [30km West of Coolangatta], from bark spray in rainforest, 30.xi.2011 (G. Monteith).
Paratypes: 1 female, 2 male apterae collected with holotype.
Comments. The metanotal sculpture of this species is distinctive, although it is based only on apterae, and winged individuals can be expected to be rather different.

Figures 16–23
Type species: Ischyrodyodoys thomsonae sp. nov.
Diagnosis. The tarsal formula 4-5-5 and the form of the mouth parts indicate that this genus belongs to the tribe Athetini. With the ligula separated in 2 lobes wide at the base, the new genus is taxonomically close to Aloconota Thomson, 1858, but in the new genus the lobes are much broader, fig. 20, than those of Aloconota, fig. 14, and have an apical bristle, absent in Aloconota. The lacinia of the maxilles finishes in 2 strong canine teeth, fig. 23, not as in Aloconota, fig. 7. The anterior border of the mentum, fig. 21, is deeply arched in the new genus. In addition, the tapered form of the body in the new genus, is clearly different from that of the species of Aloconota.
Description. 11 antennomeres, pronotum more narrow in front than posteriorly, abdomen very narrow posteriorly. Labial palpus 3-jointed, ligula separated in 2 lobes with wide base and with a apical bristle, fig. 20, maxillary palpi 4-jointed, maxillae with 2 strong canine apical teeth of the lacinia, galea as long as the lacinia,with pubescent apical membrane, fig. 23. Trapezoidal mentum, with smaller base deeply arched posteriorly, fig. 21. Mesosternal process insinuated between the mesocoxae, which are slightly separated. Tarsal formula 4-5-5, 1st mesometatarsomere as long as the 2 following tarsomeres together. Aedeagus figs 17–18, spermatheca fig. 19.
Etymology. The name of the neutral grammatical genus of the new genus means “Two strong teeth” from the ancient Greek ίσχυρος = strong, δύο = two and όδούς = tooth.

description: Lepanthes elata Reichenbach (1866: 90) (Figure 4B).
Type:— COSTA RICA. Desengaño: 9 May 1857, Collected by H. Wendland 844 (holotype: W).
Examined specimen: ECUADOR. Carchi: Reserva Dracula, coordinates omitted for conservation purposes, 1420 m, 20 Nov 2020, M. F. Monteros MFM219 (QCNE).
Distribution and ecology: Lepanthes elata has a wide distribution range, distributed throughout Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Bolivia, occurring at elevations between 1500 to 2600 m. (Luer & Thoerle 2012, GBIF 2022). The recent discovery of L. elata in the northwestern Carchi province of Ecuador expands its distribution approximately 24 km from the southernmost record located in Nariño department, reported by Luer & Thoerle (2012). In Ecuador, L. elata has been found in the cloud forests as epiphytic at an elevation of 1400 m. In northwestern Ecuador, L. elata has been observed flowering in June and November.
Taxonomic Discussion: Lepanthes elata is characterized by the large leaves (to ca. 25 cm long) erect and convex, borne by tall, robust ramicauls; the relatively large yellow flowers are produced from a dense raceme along the concave, abaxial surface of the leaf. The sepals are glabrous, entire, and acute; the upper lobes of the petals are oblong and overlap above the column and lip; the lip has ovate blades with a minute and pedunculate appendix (Luer & Thoerle 2012).

Adelothrips australis Mound, 1974: 12.
This species seems to be restricted to southern Australia. It was based on one female macroptera taken at Canberra, together with two specimens from Bordertown, South Australia, and another from near Adelaide. It shares with eurytis sp.n. described below the curious structure of the mesoeusternum anterior margin being eroded medially, with the mesopresternum projecting posteriorly into this eroded area (Fig. 17). This occurs in both macropterae and apterae, but in macropterae the lateral margins of the mesopresternum are fused to the mesoeusternum. A similar posterior projection of the mesopresternum has not previously been reported from any species of Phlaeothripidae, although fusion of the mesopresternum and mesoeusternum is known in Asianthrips from southern Japan (see Dang et al. 2014). The male has specialised areas of reticulation laterally on sternites (V) VI–VIII, but these are variable in their extent (Fig. 31).
Material studied. Australian Capital Territory, Canberra, Black Mt., holotype female macroptera from dead branch, 2.iii.1968 (LAM 525); Oakey Hill, 2 male apterae from Eucalyptus blakeleyi dead twigs, 21.iv.2011.

Lepanthes quadricornis

description: Lepanthes quadricornis Luer & R.Escobar (1994: 108) (Figure 4C).
Type:— COLOMBIA. Nariño: Apparently collected near Ricaurte, flowered in cultivation at the La Planada Science Station #48, 21 Jul 1989, C. H. Dodson, R. Escobar & E. Valencia 18060 (holotype: MO).
Examined specimens: ECUADOR. Carchi: Reserva Dracula, coordinates omitted for conservation purpose, 4 Aug 2021, M. F. Monteros MFM220 (QCNE).
Distribution and ecology: Lepanthes quadricornis was previously known from southwestern Colombia. The type locality is located near the La Planada reserve between 1600–1800 m in the Nariño department (Luer & Thoerle 2012). Lepanthes quadricornis has recently been recorded from the cloud forests of northwestern Ecuador in the Carchi province at 2150 m. The species extends its distribution 40 km south of the type locality and rises 350 m above the previous records from Colombia. In northwestern Ecuador has been flowering in situ between May and August.
Taxonomic Discussion: Lepanthes quadricornis is characterized by the proportionally large flowers on top of a spreading, broadly elliptical leaf. The sepals are densely ciliate and form a broad, shallow cup; the dorsal sepal is short-tailed, and the lateral sepals are acute. The petals are forked with erect, oblong, and sharply carinated lobes. The lip is “U” shaped, glabrous and encircles the column (Luer & Thoerle 2012). The Ecuadorian specimens are slightly different when compared to the Colombian ones (Figure 6), especially in the proportion of the flower sepals, being the dorsal sepal more concave with a longer tail in the apex; the lateral sepals are vinaceous suffused with ivory in the center and are longer and wider in relation to the Ecuadorian specimen.

Figures 24–28
Type species: Notioantilogiusa rara sp. nov.
Diagnosis. Similar to Aloconota, but with spermatheca more similar to that of the species of the tribe Bolitocharini than to the genus Aloconota and the ligula is separated in 2 very divergent lobes, fig. 26, and not in 2 parallel lobes as in Aloconota, fig. 14.
Description. 11 antennomeres, temples divergent posteriorly, pronotum narrower in front than posteriorly, with pubescence direct to the posterior on straight line, 2 basal furrows of the abdomen; wingless genus; labial palpi 3-jointed, ligula separated in 2 very divergent lobes, fig. 26, a little leaning paraglosse in front, maxillary palpi 4-jointed, galea a little longer than lacinia, fig. 28, trapezoidal mentum with smaller base a little deeply arched posteriorly, fig. 27; mesosternal process acute, extending two-thirds of the length of the mesocoxae, tarsal formula 4-5-5, first metatarsomere as long as the 2 preceding together. Spermatheca, fig. 25.
Etymology. The female name of the new genus means “What is southern contradiction” from the ancient Greek νότιος = southern, αντιλογία = contradiction and ούσα = what it is. The contradiction consists of the form of the spermatheca typical of the tribe Bolitocharini in a body with characters of the tribe Athetini.
