Male. Head hardly as long as broad (Fig. 1), 1.2 times broader. Vertex conically a little inflated dorsally (Figs 1) with a cut top. Numerous setae alveoli are almost regularly spaced over the entire surface in spite of scar free areas above C-shaped compound eyes laterally. Eyes separated, interocular suture arcuate (Figs 1, 12), eye bridge formed by five facet rows, frontal marginal rows are reduced to four facets. Minimum distance between eyes corresponds roughly to six facet diameters; index of distance from tangential points of eye apices to minimum of frons 3.2. Setae alveoli of frontoclypeus arranged almost in a triangular centrally placed patch near the base of antennae, tapering to a dorsoventral stripe of hairs close below frontal suture (Figs 1, 12). Patagia cylindrical, bag-shaped, constricted and contracted in one third, bent, covered with microsetae, see Fig. 11. Antenna with 15 articles; scape club-shaped (Fig. 2), somewhat widened apically, 2.5 times as long as its maximum width, narrowed et base, 4.9 times as long as its minimum width. Pedicel pitcher-shaped, symmetrical. Flagellomere 1 (postpedicel) cylindrical, hardly as long as three following flagellomeres together (Fig. 2). Postpedicel with six conspicuous, strong bristles arranged in a row, sometimes is the longest distal bristle doubled (from the same insertion). Scape and pedicel with stiletto-shaped scales in contrast to needle-shaped macrosetae of flagellomeres. Flagellomeres 2–12 ovoid, with needle-shaped paired ascoids, a little bent, shorter than flagellomeres in which are inserted; apical flagellomere twice as long as the previous one including digital apiculus placed a little out of longitudinal axis (Fig. 13). Length ratio of maxillary palpus segments 1.0:1.2:1.5:2.1; apical segment annulated (Fig. 3). Terminal labial lobes (Fig. 14) with diverging rows of spines between them. Ratio of maximum length of cibarium (Fig. 4) to length of epipharynx 1.7:1.</p> <p>Thorax. Anepisternum setae patch is almost trapezoid, anepimeron with triangular setose patch (Fig. 15). Spiracles set low on mesothorax. Wings (Fig. 16) lanceolate, 3.3 mm in holotype, 2.9–3.4 mm in paratypes, rounded distally, a little expanded at the posterior margin. The ending of R 5 beyond the tip of wing. Wing membrane slightly infuscated between Sc, R 1 and C and ends of all veins are a little strengthened distally with dark spots. Following veins or their parts strengthened: Sc with conspicuously marked origin and end, R 1 in distal three quarters, R 2, R 5, basal field, cross vein m 1 – m 2, CuA 1 and CuA 2 (conspicuously basally). Radial fork complete, medial fork in a form of a cross vein, their position see on Fig. 16. Both forks and the ending of CuA 2 are in one line (almost central area of wing). Wing index 2.4. Knob of halteres globular, with three close sensory microsetae ventrally, a prolonged stem as usually developed (Fig. 5). Ratio of maximum length of halteres to their maximum width approximately 2.8:1. Ratios of lengths of femora, tibiae and first tarsal segments P 1 2.0:2.3:1.0, P 2 2.1:2.8:1.1, P 3 2.4:3.2:1.2. Paired tarsal claws of P 1 gradually tapering, bent distad (Fig. 6).</p> <p>Male genitalia. Ejaculatory apodeme almost straight, only inconspicuously bent proximally and contracted distally (Figs 8, 21), aedeagal complex with paired sclerotized boomerang-shaped ribs diverged laterally and converged caudally. The basis of distiphallus is braced by gonocoxal apodeme – a chitinized stripe with three prolonged lobes (arms) of different shape and length (triangular and pale-shaped) on both sides (Fig. 8). Gonocoxites almost hemisphaerical (Figs 8–10), gonostyli ovoid basally, with irregular margins, conspicuously scelrotized, distal parts V-shaped, forked in two protuberances: sickle-shaped thin longer arm and thicker shorter saw-shaped one with numerous teeth (Figs 18–19). Epandrium (Figs 7, 17) almost semicircular in dorsal view, hardly rectangular from lateral one, not bare, (see two divided areas of insertions of hairs distally), posterior margin conspicuously sclerotized, emarginate, with a deep cleft. Basal paired apertures conspicuous, crevice-shaped, connected. Ventral epandrial plate reduced (Fig. 17). Hypandrium narrow with a lobulus in the middle (Fig. 8). Epiproct inconspicuous, as a rounded fold, covered with microsetae and dark structures inside; hypoproct conspicuous, setose, tongueshaped, rounded apically from dorsal view (Figs 7, 17). Epandrial claspers (surstyli) strong, enlarged basally in contrast to the top, almost straight from dorsal view (Fig. 17), bent at about one-third from lateral view (Fig. 7). Tenacula are numerous (30–35), formed in longitudinal rows on inner sides of clasping lobes, apically frayed.</p> <p>Female. Unknown.</p> <p>Differential diagnosis. Thornburghiella montana sp. nov. resembles T. kovari Ježek, 1993 in body size, as well as wing venation. The new species have head vertex a little inflated dorsally (Fig. 1); frons with a dorsoventral stripe of hairs (Figs 1, 12); postpedicel not constricted subapically (Fig. 2); hypandrium narrow with a lobulus in the middle (Fig. 8); gonostyli with two protuberances. (Figs 8–10, 18, 19); aedeagal complex with paired sclerotized boomerang-shaped ribs diverged laterally and converged caudally (Figs 8, 20, 21). Thornburghiella kovari is readily distinguishable by vertex of head, conspicuously elevated dorsally; frons without dorsoventral stripe of hairs; postpedicel constricted subapically; hypandrium stripe-shaped of the same width; gonostyli with three quite different bizarre protuberances; aedeagal complex with two parallel almost spatula-shaped cut protuberances and inner two linear ribs diverged caudally by conspicuous sclerotized hooks protruded outline of distiphallus.</p> <p>Type material.

Male. Head roundish, as long as wide (Fig. 22), with prominent cut vertex. Eyes separated, compound, kidney or C-shaped laterally, upper apices of eyes narrower in contrast to lower ones. Posteriolateral margins of eyes with 2–4 insertions of supraocular bristles on both sides. Setae alveoli are almost regularly spaced over the medial surface in spite of lateral patches with sporadic insertions and gore-shaped scar free areas laterally above eyes. Interocular suture bow-shaped, eye bridge formed generally by four facet rows, frontal marginal rows are reduced to three facets (Fig. 30). Minimum distance between eyes corresponds roughly to 3.4 facet diameters; index of distance from tangential points of eye apices to minimum of frons 8.0. Setae alveoli of frontoclypeus arranged almost in rectangular, centrally placed patch near base of antennae, tapering abruptly to a dorsoventral very narrow stripe of hairs close below frontal suture (Figs 22, 30). Antennae (Figs 23, 31) of 16 articles. Scape cylindrical, as long as globular pedicel, but narrower, first flagellomeres spindle-shaped, last ones ovoid; terminal flagellomere with an excentrical digital apiculus. Ascoids of flagellomeres 2-13 needle-shaped, a little bent, paired, twice shorter than flagellomeres in which are inserted. At the labellum, as shown in Fig. 32, parallel lines of miniature spines between both lobes absent. Labellum bulbose, without conspicuous digital protuberances in between (Fig. 32). Length ratio of maxillary palps 1.0:1.6:1.6:2.9, segment 4 annulate (Fig. 24). Ratio of maximum length of cibarium to length of epipharynx 1.3:1 (Fig. 25), labrum pointed.</p> <p>Thorax. Anepisternum setae patch almost semicircular, with circular thoracic spiracle anteriorly; anepimeron approximately with trapezoid setose patch (Fig. 26). Spiracles narrowly separated from protuberant anterior region of anepisternite and set on low on mesothorax. No thoracic allurement organs. Wings (Fig. 34) lanceolate, a little expanded et the posterior margin, 2.0 mm in holotype, 1.9–2.1 mm, in paratypes, rounded distally, the ending of R 5 a little beyond the tip of wing. Wing membrane not infuscated. Following veins or their parts strengthened: Sc (conspicuously on both ends), R 1, R 5, CuA 1, CuA 2 (markedly in one quarter basally). Radial fork in contrast to medial one complete (Fig. 34). Both forks and the ending of CuA 2 are not in one line; medial fork positioned somewhat to basal wing cell. Wing index 2.7. Knob of halteres (Fig. 33) globular, slightly asymmetrical, tapering to a prolonged stem with a basal fold. Scales are narrow, lanceolate, in contrast to three sensory microsetae ventrally arranged in a vertical row. Ratio of maximum length of halteres (measured to the fold of stem) to their maximum width 2.3: 1. Ratios of lengths of femora, tibiae and first tarsal segments: P 1 1.9:2.0:1.0, P 2 2.0:2.4:1.1, P 3 2.1:2.7:1.2. Paired tarsal claws of P 1 only a little bent in their last third, pointed, haired basally.</p> <p>Male genitalia with hypandrium stripe-shaped of the same width (Fig. 29). Aedeagal complex with basiphallus (ejaculatory apodeme) almost straight and narrow in dorsal view (Fig. 29), inconspicuously swollen and rounded proximally and conspicuously inflated distally to bul-shaped form; apodeme is weakened in the middle (lateral view, Fig. 37), strangulated by two clefts in one third basally and bent in second third. Distiphallus consisting of two phallomeres forming a spatula with divergent and pointed long lateral V-shaped protuberances only a little shorter than two parameral sclerites pointed and touched distally. Parameral joints with a transverse slightly curved wave band-like sclerite proximally connected by two narrow stripes with a sclerotized circle, and distally with divergent bolt-shaped protuberances, 0.5 time as long as phallomeres. Gonocoxal condyles apparently fused with parameral sheath. Gonopods see Figs 28, 29. Gonocoxites are almost cylindrical, stout, as long as gonostyli, at first of the same width, then rapidly tapering to the conspicuously sclerotized prolonged tips (Fig. 29). Gonocoxites have two long setae on the inner side basally, hardly as long as phallomeres. Epandrium (Figs 35, 36) quadrate with two patches of hairs on both sides caudally and a deep notch distally. Central aperture elliptical, doubled, strangulated in the middle. Ventral plate was not observed, only perhaps elliptical remnants. Hypoproct is tongue-shaped, triangular; epiproct only as a fold with a conical inner basis, narrowed medially. Both parts haired. Epandrial claspers almost cylindrical, haired, straight (dorsal view, Fig. 35), a little widened at basis and bent (lateral view, Fig. 36), 1.3-times as long as epandrium, with 5 tenacula subapically; ends are not frayed.</p> <p>Female. Unknown.</p> <p>Differential diagnosis. Pericoma inopinata can hardly be distinguished at first sight from the similar species P. calcilega Feuerborn, 1923, P. pingarestica Vaillant, 1978, P. tonnoiri Vaillant, 1978; and P. vestita Vaillant &amp; Withers, 1993 (a part of Vaillant’s group trifasciata – see Vaillant 1978, part 317, p. 214, calcilega subgroup of Vaillant &amp; Withers 1993 and the key of Kvifte &amp; Ivkovic 2018), with a distiphallus consisting of two phallomeres forming a spatula with divergent and pointed or rounded long lateral V-shaped protuberances. In the new species, the two parameral sclerites are not pointed; they are blunt and separated distally. The gonostyli are at first almost globular (swollen) and bent in almost right angle to very prolonged, thin, needle-shaped protuberances. P. inopinata has two parameral sclerites tapering and touched caudally in one point, and the gonostyli are, moreover, at first cylindrical at first and then rapidly tapering to the conspicuously sclerotized prolonged tips, almost straight or only a little arched (Fig. 29).</p> <p>Type material.
