Coniocompsa sp. Material - Thailand, Prov. Prachin Buri, Sakaerat Forest, mixed evergreen forest, 15. VI. 2001, sweeping from shrubs and trees, 1 female specimen. As regards the wing shape and patterns, this coniopterygid differs clearly from the above mentioned two Coniocompsa species. Perhaps it may be conspecific with an other already described Asian species of the genus, however, the correct identifi­cation in the case of this female specimen is impossible at species level. Coniopteryx (Coniopteryx) alticola sp. n. (Figs 14-20) Holotype - Male: "Thailand, Prov. Prachin Buri, Sakaerat Forest, mixed evergreen forest, 15.VI. 2001, sweeping in a height about 30 m, in the canopy level, 1.: E. Horváth, Gy. Sziráki". De­posited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest. Description - Clypeus, frons and the head capsule behind the eyes light brown, vertex light ochreous. Eyes rather small, black. Palpi light brown. On the head a prominent process is between the antennae (Fig. 20). Its upper and lower edge almost straight, apex widely rounded. Antennae dark brown, 24-segmented, 0.8 mm long. Scape about as long as broad, pedicel somewhat longer than broad, median flagellar segments about two times as broad as long. Ordinary hairs are sit­uated irregularly on the antennái segments. Scale-like hairs are in an apical ring on the flagellar segments, and cover the majority of the surface of the pedicel. Setae are present on each flagellar segments. Besides, on the inner side of the first flagellar segment there is a projection with erected, moderately long setae (Fig. 19). Moreover, on this segment there are two short curving spines also basally of the scale-like hairs. Thorax light brown, with dark shoulder spots, and with dark spots below the bases of the wings. Both wings are relatively wide, with round apex. Wing mem­brane brown. Length of fore wing 1.5 mm, of hind wing 1.3 mm. Male genitalia as in Figs 14-18: Hypandrium in lateral view slightly higher than broad. Apodeme along the anterior margin ventrally complete. Processus ter­minális distinct. Median apical incision wide, anteriorly rounded, its lateral edges are parallel with each other. Processus lateralis long, acute, with strong setae. Gonarcus broad, with prominent, well sclerotized, setose caudal projection. Stylus forked, its outer branch acute, while the inner branches form a belt below the para­meres. Besides, at the base of the inner branch there is a rounded lobe (visible clearly in caudal view). Processus ventralis of paramere minute. Processus apicalis large, pointed, directed upwards, connected to the stem of the paramere with a thin
