Dacus (Lophodacus) kurrensis White & Goodger
Dacus (Lophodacus) kurrensis White & Goodger, 2009: 33.
Size. Small, wing length, 5.7 mm.
Female
Head:
Pedicel+first flagellomere not longer than ptilinal suture. Face, antennal furrow with a dark spot; ovate, slightly taller than broad. Frons, frontal setae 2, orbital setae 1. Thorax:
Scutum predominantly red-brown, with indistinct fuscous areas pre- and postsuturally either side of mid-line; postpronotal lobe yellow; notopleural callus yellow; notopleural xanthine wedge shaped (connected to notopleural callus); lateral and medial postsutural vitta absent. Scutellum without any dark patterning (except for basal dark margin). Anepisternum with a narrow yellow stripe from notopleural callus to katepisternum; extended onto katepisternum. Laterotergal xanthine confined to katatergite. Thoracic setae. Anterior notopleural seta present but reduced (thin black on left side; thin white on right side); anterior supra-alar seta absent. Wing:
Basal cells bc and c without an almost complete covering of microtrichia; cell bm without microtrichia; narrow subbasal raised section of cell br with extensive covering of microtrichia, apically confined to anterior two-thirds. Crossvein R-M beyond middle of cell dm. Costal band complete; shallow, only slightly extending below vein R2+3 before wing apex; apically expanded into a spot which reaches about one-third depth of cell r4+5. Anal streak absent. Cells bc and c hyaline. Without any crossbanding. Legs:
Femora bicoloured, yellow basally; fore- and hindfemur red-brown in apical third; midfemur red-brown in apical half. Abdomen:
Predominantly red-brown; tergite II yellow apically; tergite III indistinctly fuscous basally. Tergites I-V all fused. Aculeus retracted and not dissected.
Male
Unknown.
