Crown and upper part of face dorsad of ocelli transversely striate. Clypeus and clypellus not swollen, clypellus slightly broader distally, lateral margins of genae straight. Ocelli closer to eyes than to median line. Labium reaching metacoxae. Mesonotum longer than median length of pronotum, but shorter than combined median length of pronotum and crown. Forewing with two subapical and four apical cells, outer apical cell largest. Metafemur with distal macrosetae 2+1, metabasitarsomere with 2 platellae (Fig. 3A). Male pygofer without ventral process, its height greater than width, anal collar fused to pygofer, produced posteriorly into either simple or bilobed process. Subgenital plate either as long as or shorter than pygofer in lateral view, with marginal setae long and setae on dorsal surface shorter. Style curved, apophysis rather flattish with ventral surface serrate, dorsal surface with row of longer setae sometimes restricted to apical 0.25 length. Connective T or Y-shaped, with median dorsal apodeme in posterior half with median anterior lobe. Aedeagus with well-developed dorsal apodeme, aedeagal shaft slender, in lateral view either slightly sinuate ( P. tagalicus and P. andamanicus) or not ( P. harrisi and P. unimaculatus), apex with small hook shaped anterodorsal extension, with one pair of long, slender, lateral, preapical processes extended basad; gonopore preapical. Ovipositor extending much beyond pygofer (Fig. 2D). Valvula I sculpturing with series of slightly curved almost vertical strigate (Figs 2 FJN). Valvula II with effaced teeth (Figs 2 HLP).</p><p>Remarks. Paraidioscopus is very similar to Idioscopus Baker as suggested by Maldonado-Capriles (1964), in general characters: striate crown and upper part of face, mesonotum longer than pronotum, forewings with 2 subapical cells, Metafemur distal macrosetae 2+1, male anal collar fused to pygofer and produced into a process, subgenital plate with marginal long setae, style with serrated ventral surface and dorsal marginal setae etc. Genus Idioscopus differs from Paraidioscopus in the following characters: male pygofer always with ventral process (absent in Paraidioscopus), aedeagal shaft fairly stout and usually two (rarely one) pairs of processes (shaft narrow with one pair of processes in Paraidoscopus), ovipositor extending slightly beyond pygofer (much beyond pygofer in Paraidioscopus). Two species for which the host plants are known, breed on plants of the family Anacardiaceae as in the case of most Idioscopus . Most species of Idioscopus utilize the species of the plant genus Mangifera L. for breeding and the species of Paraidioscopus use the species of plant genus Semecarpus L. f.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D465463C1B087C01A1F2CDA51199FB69	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Head and pronotum uniformly lemon yellow and immaculate. Mesonotum with large round median black spot on mesoscutum. Pygofer posterodorsal angle more or less rectangular, anal collar process long and distally bilobed, segment X about as long as broad. Subgenital plate about as long as pygofer, with marginal long setae in distal 0.33 and setae on dorsal surface in median 0.33 distance. Style strongly curved dorsally at midlength, serration on ventral surface extending to basal 0.75 region, dorsal marginal setae in distal 0.25, apex with one tooth on ventral surface. Aedeagus with well-developed dorsal apodeme, about 0.25 as long as shaft, stout; shaft broad in basal 0.2 and then slender and of uniform width and almost straight, curved dorsally and apex rounded, processes longer than shaft with serrated margin in median 0.33 length, gonopore at distal 0.66 length on ventral surface. Female sternite VII with convex posterior margin (Fig. 2C).</p><p>Female genitalia. Valvula II with more prominent, widely placed teeth in basal region, apical region with crenulate margin (Fig. 2P).</p><p>Material examined. SRI LANKA: 3♁, 2♀, Peradeniya, 6.vi.2007, Gnaneswaran (UASB) .</p><p>Remarks. Melichar (1903) adequately described the coloration and structure of the species in German. Distant (1908: 188) translated the description into English but mesonotum was erroneously translated as ‘ocelli’. Viraktamath (1976) misinterpreted this and stated erroneously ‘face with a single round black spot between ocelli and erroneously ascribed the species to Distant instead of Melichar. Mr. M.D. Webb (personal communication) examined the type and shared the illustration of the aedeagus made during his visit to Moravian Museum Brno (Webb et al. 1990). Later, Gnaneswaran sent specimens for identification from the type locality and the illustrations of the species provided are from this material. The structure of male pygofer, anal collar process, style and slender aedeagus with two long thin processes places this species in Paraidioscopus . It differs from the remaining two species of Paraidioscopus treated here and the type species in having the head and pronotum immaculate. P. tagalicus and P. unimaculatus have a median large round spot on the mesoscutum but differ in the shape of the anal collar process (bilobed in P. unimaculatus and unilobed in P. tagalicus), the style apex (with a tooth on ventral surface in P. uninmaculatus but absent in P. tagalicus) and the aedeagal shaft (sinuate in P. tagalicus but not sinuate in P. unimaculatus). This species breeds extensively on the endemic plant Semecarpus coriaceus Thwaites in Sri Lanka (Gnaneswaran 2021).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D465463C1B017C08A1F2CDED105FFBD4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
