Diagnosis

Phaenoglyphis stricta is mainly characterized by scutellar fovea with straight sides and open on the top and on the bottom (Fig. 7.14); female antenna with rhinaria and club shape beginning on the last two thirds of F1, F1 longer than pedicel and F2, and F2–F4 subequal in length (Fig. 6.20). It is similar to P. insperatus, but they can be differentiated by the shape of the scutellar foveae (straight sides and open both on the top and on the bottom in P. stricta (Fig. 7.14), but rounded and slightly open at the bottom in P. insperatus (Fig. 7.5)) and the size of the radial cell (2.4 times as long as wide in P. stricta but 2.9 times in P. insperatus).
