Description

Tautoneura Anufriev, 1969

Tautoneura Anufriev, 1969 Acta Faun. Entomol. Mus. Nat. Pragae. 13(153): 186–188 Erythroneura (Balia) Dworakowska, 1970 (Dworakowska, 1977: 290) Havelia Ahmed, 1971 (Dworakowska, 1977: 290)

Type species: Tautoneura tricolor Anufriev, 1969

Body small, about 2.0–3.0 mm, usually yellow or light yellow. Head bluntly produced medially, slightly narrower than pronotum or equal to greatest width of pronotum. Median length of vertex equal to or longer than length between eyes. Some species with more arc-rounded anterior margin of vertex. Pronotum broad, often with irregular patches or spots; scutellum nearly triangular. Forewing usually with red markings or spots.

Male genitalia: Pygofer lobe broad, usually with several macrosetae at basal lower angle and some short stout setae in the distal part of the lobe on inner surface, peg-like. Dorsal appendage of pygofer long, tapering apically, movably articulated with pygofer lobe. Some species have ventral appendage. Aedeagus usually with large dorsal apodeme and one or two pairs of processes of variable length at apex of shaft. Style slender, with a slim “neck” subapically, and prominent preapical lobe. Connective nearly M- or Y-shaped. Shape of anal tube appendage diverse, but that of most species hook-like at apex.

Distribution: India (Sikkim, Tami Nadu, Himachal Pradesh) (Dworakowska 1977, 1980, 1981a, 1994a; Sohi et al. 1987; Thapa 1989; Mathew & Ramakrishnan 1996); Sri Lanka (Dworakowska 1981a; Dworakowska 1994b); Malaysia (Dworakowska 1984); Singapore (Dworakowska 1984); Nepal (Kathmandu Valley, Pokhara) (Dworakowska 1981a, b; Thapa 1984; Sohi et al. 1990; Sohi & Mann 1992); Vietnam (Dworakowska 1979a); USSR (Anufriev 1969); Japan (Tokyo) (Dworakowska 1979b); China (Zhang 1990).
