rian Natural History Museum, Budapest. P. franz i sp.n. appears to be related to P. gomerensis sp.n. and P . beckeri (Duda), judging from the similarities in the aedeagal complex, reduced male pseudocerci and the form of telomere. However, its wing venation rather resembles that of P. pilifemorata sp.n., but apart from the quite different male genitalia it can be distinguished from the latter species by its smaller body, paler thorax, more pruinose syntergum 1+2 and by its short small spines on the ventral side of male mid femur. We dedicate this new species to Professor Dr. H. FRANZ, who collected this highly valuable material of short-winged forms. Paralimosina pilifemorata sp.n. (Figs. 3, 4, 12, 14-16, 22) Measurements in mm: body length: 2.60 (holotype), 2.12, 2.50 (paratypes); wings: 0.84 x 0.36 (holotype), 0.47 x 0.26, 0.56 x 0.29 (paratypes); strong interfrontal bristle: 0.17 (holotype); mtddle tibia and femur: 0.67 + 0.70 (holotype); hind tibia and femur: 0.81 + 0.84 (holotype). Body and legs dark brown, only a pair of spots laterally to antennái bases reddish, and also apices of femora and tibiae and tibial bases red to yellowish red. Longest hairs on arista only 0.03 mm. Ventral side of male middle and hind femora and tibiae with long hairs (Fig. 14, 15): hairs on middle femora extremely long (0.23 mm) and thick, bristle-like, longest hairs on hind femora 0.11 mm (Fig. 15). Ventroapical bristle of male middle tibia rather short. Wings of male the least reduced, i.e. the longest one in this species-group; costa thick and dark brown with a very long bristle at base (this bristle broken, thus not measurable but it must be over 0.2 mm), another long bristle (0.12 mm) on base (Fig. 3) and some long bristles on mg^; apical part of ri strongly upcurving, r2+3 almost straight, section mg2 comparatively long, r4+5 terminating at wing apex; medial vein ends in radial T4+5; cu longest in this species group; alula comparatively large, apex narrowly rounded with some hairs. Syntergum 1+2 shining on a large central spot reaching distal margin, pruinose laterally. Female wings much shorter than those of male (see above); costa dark brown and very thick (0.023 mm on section mg2>, its basal bristle broken off (but it must be very long judged by its base), another bristle of 0.08 mm on base and five long bristles on mgj; apical part of ri heavily upcurving, radial veins r2+3 and r4+5 fused in their basal half, free section of r2+3 short, apical part of r4 + 5 upcurving, i.e. ends at a distance from wing apex; medial vein short and ending in the fused part of radiais; cu distinct and comparatively long (Fig. 4). Alula same as in male. Male 5th sternum (Fig. 16) comparatively long with long posteromedial lobe of characteristic setosity and with a long medial, more sclerotized and dark pigmented thick. In front of posteromedial lobe a dense row of short thick acutely pointed spines present. Bristles laterally to this row of spines sparser and shorter than in anaptera sp.n. Periandrium (epandrium) rather long, somewhat longer than in anaptera . Pseudocerci longest among the related species, distinctly projecting ventrally and forming an apically somewhat dilated but laterally flattened lobe. Pseudocerci with some very thin bristles and dense micropubescence each. Hypandrium hardly longer than in other relatives.Telomere (Fig. 12) large and comparatively long (high), similar to that of anaptera. Anterior flat lobe small with several small setulae subapically. Anterior ventral spine large with sharply pointed interior apex as in anaptera. Posterior lobe large with 1 row of very long setiform hairs (and 2-3 additional hairs posteriorly). Ventral margin and adjacent area with dense and rather long micropubescence. Posterior ventral spine highly characteristic, because of its more anterior position and rather slender but apically rounded form. Aedeagal complex with phallophore shorter than in anaptera sp.n. but distiphallus rather similar, particularly as regards Its slender and elongate form. Setosity of ventrobasal part of distiphallus distinctly longer. Postgonite (Fig. 22) long, slender, , slightly sinuate with shortly forked apex. Ejaculatory apodeme small but discernible. Holotype male: Anagageb., Tenerife, leg. H. FRANZ (on the other side of label: "Sp. 1155") - Kanarische Inseln, leg. H. FRANZ. - Paratypes: 2 p: data same as for holotype. The type-specimens are glued on labels, the genitalia of holotype are preserved in glycerine in microvial. The holotvoe and one paratype are deposited in the collection of Prof. H. FRANZ, one female paratype is in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest. P. pilifemorata sp.n. is a highly distinct species. Its venation resembles that of P.franzi sp.n. (at least as regards paratype females) but actually it seems closest to P. anaptera sp.n.
