ABSTRACT
Waoraniella vidali n. sp., the second species in the genus, is described and illustrated on
the basis of a male from Amazonas, Brazil. The hypandrium and clunium are autapomorphic for the family. The phallosome is similar to that of Eolachesilla, and the character state “Forewing Rs-M joined by a crossvein” is found to appear in three genera of the subfamily Lachesillinae. Thus Waoraniella and Eolachesilla are close, and the genera of Graphocaeciliini stand apart in the subfamily.
RESUMEN
Se describe aquí Waoraniella vidali n. sp., la segunda especie en el género, con base en un macho colectado en Amazonas, Brasil. El hipandrio y el clunio son autapomórficos para la familia, mientras que el falosoma es similar al de Eolachesilla; el estado de carácter “Venas Rs-M del ala anterior unidas por una vena transversal”, se encuentra en tres géneros de la subfamilia Lachesillinae. Waoraniella y Eolachesilla son cercanas, y los géneros de la tribu Graphocaeciliini constituyen un grupo aparte en la subfamilia.
