Compound eyes: with short setation throughout, inner orbits rounded at the level of lateral ocelli. Lateral ocellus: contiguous with compound eye. Ocellar setae: absent. Sculpture of vertex: shallowly and evenly coriaceous. Shape of vertex: rounded, without hyperoccipital carina. Occipital carina: complete, extending to base of mandibles ventrally, continuous dorsally. Anterior margin of occipital carina: weakly crenulate dorsally, smooth laterally and ventrally. Sculpture of gena: shallowly and evenly coriaceous.</p> <p>Mesosoma. Epomial carina: absent. Sculpture of lateral pronotum: coriaceous microsculpture anterior to netrion. Netrion sulcus: present, weakly defined medially. Sculpture of netrion: smooth. Setation of mesoscutum: evenly covered with white setae throughout. Sculpture of mesoscutum: scaly reticulate microsculpture. Mesoscutal suprahumeral sulcus: absent. Mesoscutal humeral sulcus: present as a smooth furrow. Interior of axillar crescent: smooth. Setation of mesoscutellum: evenly covered with white setae throughout. Sculpture of mesoscutellar disc: smooth. Posterior mesoscutellar sulcus: foveate. Sculpture of metascutellum: rugose throughout. Metanotal trough: foveate, foveae less than half the lenght of the metanotum. Number of setae in metanotal trough: 3-4. Acetabular carina: present, wide and flat dorsally and directly posterior to fore coxa. Intercoxal space: greater than the length of fore coxa. Setation of ventral mesopleuron: densely setose surrounding mesodiscrimen. Episternal foveae: absent. Sculpture of anteroventral mesopleuron: scaly reticulate microsculpture. Sculpture of femoral depression: smooth. Mesopleural carina: weakly indicated in posteroventral corner of mesopleuron. Prespecular sulcus: indicated by shallow foveae. Sculpture of speculum: transversely rugulose. Mesepimeral sulcus: comprised of circular foveae. Sculpture of posterior mesepimeral area: smooth. Paracoxal sulcus: absent. Metapleural epicoxal sulcus: indicated by a line of shallow foveae. Anteroventral extension of the metapleuron: blunt, triangular, extending to base of mesocoxa. Sculpture of metapleuron: variably rugose in posterior and ventral portions, anterior part of dorsal metapleuron mostly smooth. Lateral propodeal area: mostly smooth with some rugae. Metasoma depression: with sparse rugae radiating from surrounding carinae and from propodeal foramen.</p> <p>Wings. Length of postmarginal vein in fore wing: twice as long as stigmal vein.</p> <p>Metasoma. Sculpture of T1: striate throughout. Number of sublateral setae on T1 (on one side): 1. Number of lateral setae (on one side): 3 or 4. Sculpture of T2: faint striation extending from basal costae, striae in lateral portion and along midline extending half the length, otherwise smooth. Length of T2: about 4/5 the length of the metasoma. Setation of T2 (mediotergite): sparse, present in a broad patch located in lateral third, roughly one half the length of the tergite. Setation of laterotergite 2: present in a patch adjacent to setose area on mediotergite. Sculpture of T7: rugulose; setation of T7: short and dense. Setation of S2: sparse and evenly distributed in area between laterotergites. Sculpture of S6: densely punctulate. Setation of S6: dense.</p> <p>Male genitalia. Number of digital teeth (on each side): 3. Size of digital teeth: small. Laminae volsellares: elongated plate with lateral indications of more intensely sclerotized rods. Aedeagal lobe: very short and rounded apically.</p> <p>Material examined.</p> <p>Brazil: Rio de Janeiro, ex. Triatoma eggs (1♀, USNMENT01795654). Mexico: Estacion Chavarrillo, Municipality Emiliano Zapata, state Veracruz, 13-VII- 2019; Cristina Bobadilla-Utrera (CIBE 19-032), (48♀, 18♂, FSCA 00091145, 00091154, 00091164-00091165, 00095774-00095780, 00095785-00095786).</p> <p>Species-group placement.</p> <p>phymatae -group.</p> <p>Host(s).</p> <p>Panstrongylus chinai, P. megistus, P. herreri, Tr. brasiliensis Neiva, Tr. dimidiata, Tr. infestans, Tr. pallidipennis (Stal), Tr. phyllosoma, Tr. maculata (Erichson), Tr. rubrovaria (Blanchard, in Blanchard &amp; Bulle), Tr. sordida (Stal), Tr. tibiomaculata, Tr. vitticeps (Stal), Rhodnius prolixus, R. palescens (Zeledon 1957; Ravinovich 1971).</p> <p>Comments.</p> <p>The specimens of Te. fariai from Mexico (Figures 2 - 6, 8 - 15) match the specimen from Brazil (Figures 1, 7) in every character that we could assess. The degree to which the frons is covered in microsculpture appears to vary within the species, as it may cover the frons (Figure 7) or be present only in the areas surrounding the antennal scrobe (Figures 4-5).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/92B3C8C3CDE5550B8981B12ACEF24B32	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
