Bolivia, Beni, El Porvenir Station NE San Borja. Diagnosis. This species has exceptional male genitalia (Figs. 22–25). The male median lobe is broad laterally and deeply bifid with the lateral rami distinctly asymmetrical with each ramus irregularly curved and twisted (Figs. 22, 23). The lateral lobes are bilaterally symmetrical with each lobe bifid (Figs. 24, 25). The dorsal ramus is abruptly curved dorsad, and the ventral ramus is evenly curved ventrad (Fig. 24). This species is pale with the head and pronotum evenly yellow and the elytron evenly brown. The broad, asymmetrical, highly modified male median lobe is completely unique within the D. nitida speciesgroup. Description. Measurements: TL = 1.7–1.8 mm, GW = 1.1–1.2 mm, HW = 0.6–0.7 mm, EW = 0.3 mm, TL/GW = 1.5, HW/EW = 2.1. Coloration: Head and pronotum evenly yellow. Elytron evenly brown. Head appendages, legs, and ventral surfaces yellow, darker on metacoxae and abdomen. Male genitalia: Male median lobe highly irregular and asymmetrical. In ventral aspect very broad, asymmetrical, deeply bifid with each ramus elongate, irregularly modified (Figs. 22, 23). Lateral lobe in lateral aspect broad medially, apically bifid, ventral ramus short, curved ventrad, dorsal ramus short, abruptly curved dorsad (Fig. 24); in ventral aspect broad, apical rami short and divergent (Fig. 25). Variation. Most of the specimens examined are teneral, and there is variation in intensity of the coloration of surfaces. Etymology. This species is named lloydi in honor of Dr. Michael S. Lloyd, MD.

Median lobe in ventral aspect broad basally, lateral margins convergent apically, broadly sinuate, apically abruptly constricted to sharply bifid apex (Fig. 6). Lateral lobe in lateral aspect very large, broad basally, curved apically, terminating in 2 long lobes, ventral lobe somewhat sinuate, apically pointed and setose, dorsal lobe narrow basally, apically slightly expanded with apex rounded (Figs. 7, 8). Variation. No noticeable variation was detected. Etymology. This species is named delongi in honor of Dr. Mahlon R. DeLong, MD. Distribution.

<i>Desmopachria curseenae</i> Miller and Wolfe, new species <p>Zoobank.org/ urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 4EF6581E-A4E6-4570-960A-9E82FCBC7A3D (Figs. 1–4, 71)</p> <p> <b>Type Locality.</b> Suriname, Sipaliwini, Raleighfallen Nature Reserve, trail to Raleighfallen, detrital pools near creek in forest, 4°42.480ʹ N, 56°13.159ʹ W.</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> This species differs from others mainly in characteristics of the male genitalia. The male median lobe is relatively unmodified, short and abruptly narrowed apically in ventral aspect (Fig. 2) and in lateral aspect curved and evenly tapered apically (Fig. 1). The lateral lobes are more distinctive with the ventral ramus laterally lobate, apically narrowed and with distinctive setae (Figs. 3, 4), and the dorsal ramus slender and curved in lateral aspect (Fig. 3) and very broad and apically truncate in ventral aspect (Fig. 4). This is a pale species with the head and pronotum yellow and the elytron evenly dark orange. The basally broad and apically strongly narrowed median lobe (Fig. 2) is somewhat similar in shape to <i>Desmopachria margarita</i> Young, but the combination of a distinctively broad dorsal ramus and slender, pointed ventral ramus of the lateral lobe in ventral aspect is different from any other <i>D. nitida</i> species-group species.</p> <p> <b>Description. Measurements:</b> TL = 1.6 mm, GW = 1.0– 1.1 mm, HW = 0.5–0.6 mm, EW = 0.3 mm, TL/GW = 1.5–1.6, HW/EW = 1.8–1.9. <b>Coloration:</b> Head and pronotum evenly yellow. Elytron evenly dark orange. Ventral surface of head, prosternum, head appendages, and pro- and mesolegs yellow, other ventral surfaces and metalegs darker orange. <b>Male genitalia:</b> Male median lobe in lateral aspect short, broadly curved, apical portion evenly curved, convergent to pointed apex (Fig. 1). Median lobe in ventral aspect very broad basally, abruptly constricted medially, apical portion narrow, apex pointed (Fig. 2). Lateral lobe relatively narrow in lateral aspect, apically bifid, ventral ramus curved, medially broadly expanded, apex narrowly pointed (Fig. 3), dorsal ramus in ventral aspect broad and apically truncate, in lateral aspect slender, sharply curved, and apically sharply pointed (Fig. 4).</p> <p> <b>Variation.</b> One of the three specimens is lighter in color (possibly teneral).</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> This species is named <i>curseenae</i> in honor of Dr. Kimberly A.

The median lobe in lateral aspect is straight to the apex, which is elongate and sharply pointed (Fig. 18). In ventral aspect, the median lobe is very broad basally, then abruptly constricted and apically narrowed to the sharply bifid apex (Fig. 19). The lateral lobe is also uniquely shaped with the dorsal ramus elongate, expanded medially and sharply pointed, and the ventral ramus is transversely broad and apically broadly rounded (Figs. 20, 21). Specimens are pale yellow with the head and pronotum evenly yellow and the elytron evenly light brown. The broad male median lobe that is apically strongly narrowed to a narrowly bispinous apex is somewhat similar to <i>Demopachria nitidoides</i> Young and <i>D. margarita</i>, but <i>D. kemptonae</i> has the median lobe straight in lateral aspect (Fig. 18), the ventral ramus of the lateral lobe broadly lobate, and the dorsal ramus pointed and curved mediad in ventral aspect (Figs. 20, 21).</p> <p> <b>Description.

Head appendages, legs, and ventral surfaces uniformly orange. <b>Male genitalia:</b> Male median lobe in lateral aspect broad basally, apical portion slender, straight, evenly tapered to sharp point (Fig. 18). Median lobe in ventral aspect very broad basally, abruptly narrowed medially, thereafter evenly tapered to sharply bifid apex (Fig. 19). Lateral lobe in lateral aspect broad basally, apically deeply bifid, ventral lobe short, apically rounded, dorsal lobe curved and apically sharply pointed (Figs 20); in ventral aspect moderately broad, apex of ventral ramus broad, apically broadly rounded, apex of dorsal ramus slightly curved mediad, narrowly rounded (Fig. 21).</p> <p> <b>Variation.</b> Specimens vary in the intensity of coloration of the dorsal surfaces, possibly because some are more teneral than others.</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> This species is named <i>kemptonae</i> in honor of Dr. Christine Kempton, MD.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> This species is known from a few localities in Venezuela (Fig. 69).</p> <p> <b>Habitat.</b> According to label data, specimens were collected from a “large lagoon” and a “marsh.”</p> <p> <b>Type Material.</b> Holotype in MIZA, male labeled, “ VENEZUELA: Barinas State 8°19.394ʹN, 70°28.238ʹW 173m ca. 13 km SE Ciudad olivai leg.
