Corynoneura hortonensis Fu & Saether 2012, sp. n.

Corynoneura hortonensis sp. n. (Figs 16 A–G) Type material. Holotype male, CANADA: Northwest Territories, Horton River (6921'N, 12649.8'W), 4.vii.2000, Bohdan Bilyj (CNC). Paratypes: 4 males, 1 female, as holotype (ZMBN). Etymology. Named after the type locality. Diagnostic characters. The male is similar to C. kedrovaya Makarchenko et Makarchenko in the shape of the inferior volsella and gonostylus, but the two species can easily be separated as the tergite IX of C. kedrovaya has 4– 6 long setae, the phallapodeme is strongly curved and the joint with the sternapodeme is placed pre–laterally, while in C. hortonensis tergite IX of the male is without long setae, the phallapodeme is slightly curved and placed in a caudal position of the sternapodeme. The male is also similar to C. sundukovi Makarchenko et Makarchenko in the shape of the inferior volsella and sternapodeme, but the two species can easily be separated as the superior volsellae of C. sundukovi are large with almost right-angled corner, while in C. hortonensis the superior volsellae are small.

Inferior volsella slightly rounded and fused with the inner margin of gonocoxite, with 1–3 strong setae. Phallapodeme curved, 30–35, 32 µm long. Transverse sternapodeme 18–22, 20 µm. Megaseta 4–6 µm long. HR 1.9–2.3, 2.1; HV 3.1–3.3, 3.2. Female (n = 1) Total length 0.89 mm. Wing length 0.71 mm. Total length/wing length 1.30. Coloration. Head brown; thorax and legs yellowish brown; abdomen as in male but paler. Head. Eyes bare. Antenna broken. Tentorium 69 µm long, 7 µm wide. Palpomere lengths (in µm): 15, 14, 18, 25, 37. Palpomere 5/3 ratio 2.1. Palpomere 2 small, palpomeres 3, 4 and 5 elliptical. Clypeus with 6 setae. Thorax. Antepronotals 0, dorsocentrals 7, prealars 2. Scutellum with 2 setae. Wing (Fig. 16 D).

Width of hind tibia 1 / 3 from apex (d) 18 µm, elongation length (b) 33 µm, length of maximum thickening (c 1) 62 µm, total length of thickening (c 2) 102 µm; a/d 1.7, b/d 1.8, c 1 /d 3.4, c 2 /d 5.7. Hind tibia expanded, with comb of 12 setae, one seta near spur strongly S-shaped. Lengths of leg segments and their proportions as in Table 15. Abdomen. Setae not observable. Genitalia (Fig. 16 E–F).

However, most of observable characters of the male separate the species from all other members of the genus.
