HERAEUS CONCOLOR SLATER & BARANOWSKI, 1994 (FIGS 25 G, 30D, 31, 32I–L, 33A) Heraeus concolor Slater & Baranowski, 1994: 493 –494; Slater & O’Donnell, 1995: 147; Baranowski & Slater, 2005: 137. Diagnosis Small species, total length less than 5 mm. Pedicel with abundant erect setae, equal to or longer than diameter of segment. Distiflagellomere with a pale band. Labium extending to metacoxae. Membrane with an apical pale spot. Metafemur darker on apical one-quarter. Heraeus concolor is similar in external appearance to H. pulchellus. Both are small species with a long labium extending to or near metacoxae; H. concolor can be differentiated by the dark-brown distiflagellomere with a conspicuous pale sub-basal band, whereas in H. pulchellus it is uniformly dark brown. These two species are known from the West Indies, and probably derived from ancestral stock related to H. plebejus that reached the islands from Florida (USA). Description (Fig. 25 G) Head: Coriaceous. Eyes not surpassing the dorsal margin of head in lateral view. Ocelli placed at level of an imaginary line passing the posterior border of eyes. Labium extending to metacoxae. Distiflagellomere with a pale band. Pedicel with abundant erect setae, equal to or longer than diameter of segment. Thorax: Posterior pronotal lobe with pale spots and a pale spot on humeral angles. Anterior pronotal lobe with long erect setae. Evaporative area extended. Scutellum with erect setae. Inner corial spot diffuse. Costal margin pale on proximal three-quarters. Corium with a subapical corial spot. Membrane with an apical pale spot, veins pale. Profemur dark, at most with apex paler, meso- and metafemur darker apically (Fig. 33 A); setae on profemur long and erect; protibia and mesofemur without spines. Abdomen, male genitalia: Pygophore (Fig. 32 I, J) rounded, anterior margin of dorsal aperture rounded. Parameres: Figure 32 (K, L). Aedeagus (Fig. 30 D): conjunctiva with a few minute spines laterally, vesica with lobes weakly sclerotized and spined apically; processus gonopori long and slender.
