4B6DE2059262CC73FDA38E668BBFF8BD.taxon	description	Head - rounded anteriorly, lacking lateral slit or notch, without sclerotized processes (oral spines) arising near the base of maxillary palpi (Figs 1 – 3); - alveoli of dorsal head setae (dhs; marginal temporal setae by Clay 1969) 26 and 27 not closely associated (Fig. 3); - dhs 18 (outer mid-dorsal head seta by Clay (1966) or dorsal head seta „ d “ by Clay (1962) is missing; - dhs 22 (outer occipital seta by Valim & Weckstein 2013 or posterior dorsal head seta „ f “ by Clay 1962) approximately as long as dhs 21 (inner occipital seta by Valim & Weckstein 2013), both surpassing pronotal carina; - dhs 23 (posterior dorsal head seta “ e ” in Clay 1962) present and anteriorly to line of bases of dhs 21 and 22 (Fig. 3); - head sensilla 3 – 5 sensu Clay (1961) or c – e sensu Clay (1969) absent; - characteristic gular plate with the greater length and thickness of the posterior pair of setae compared to the rest ones (Figs 1 – 2). Thorax - prosternal plate well developed with straight anterior margin and two anterior setae (Fig. 4); - pronotum with one pair of minute dorso-central pronotal setae lying near the transverse carina (dps 2 by Clay 1962) (Fig. 3); - pronotum with anterolateral pronotal setae (marginal prothoracic setae 1 – 3, mps 1 – 3 in Clay 1962) in following arrangement: mps 1 and mps 3 spine-like, mps 2 fine and long; mps 1 and mps 2 located on each lateral corner of pronotum, with mps 3 posteriorly to mps 2 on pronotal margin (Fig. 3); - mesonotum well defined with only two anterior setae; - mesonotum without median division, but with a Y-shaped line just below postnotum, not forming a suture or even splitting mesonotum (Fig. 3). This Y-shaped line slightly less evident, but also discernible in good specimens from other host families; - strongly sclerotized ring-like mesothorax – mesothorax with sternum, pleura and tergum fused to form strongly sclerotized ring round the body; - femur III without combs of spine-like setae but with thick or sparse brushes of setae. Abdomen - sternite I mostly surrounded by sternite II (it lies inside the wide notch of sternite II) (Fig. 5); - sternite II enlarged with a clutch of heavy spine-like setae at each posterior-lateral margin called aster; - male genitalia as in Fig. 6. - male genital sac sclerite with two roughly serrated spiculated lateral arms (Figs 7 – 9); - female vulva with smooth posterior margin (Fig. 1); - female ventral anal margin without lateral seta-bearing processes (see Clay 1969); - sternite VII fused with VIII + IX + X, forming female subgenital plate, although with a distinct transverse fenestra distinctly enclosed at lateral sides of subgenital plate where seventh and eighth segments fused (in A. circumsternata and A. isacantha; see Valim & Weckstein 2013: fig. 11); in the case of A. klimesi – male abdominal sternite VIII and female sternite VII both separated from the subgenital plate, which is formed by a single sternite IX (in the male) or fusion of sternites VIII and IX (in the female) (Figs 1 – 2).	en	Kolencik, Stanislav, Sychra, Oldřich, Allen, Julie M.

4B6DE2059262CC73FDA38E668BBFF8BD.taxon	etymology	Etymology The generic name Apomyrsidea is formed by a combination of Greek word ‘ Apo ’ = ‘ from’ and Myrsidea, referring that it is separated from the genus Myrsidea, where it was originally placed. The gender is feminine.	en	Kolencik, Stanislav, Sychra, Oldřich, Allen, Julie M.
