Sternite 9 of male with posteromedian margin characteristic of each species, with or without posterior projection; gonostylus with two or three mesal setae; parameres symmetrical, well sclerotized, with or without posterior projection; aedeagus with body well sclerotized, posterolateral arms short, recurved.

If our knowledge of the immatures of the genus is improved then we will hopefully be able to find new, valuable characters to properly propose a phylogenetic classification.</p> <p>Remm (1971) described the subgenus Sebessia which includes the cincta group, with species in all the mayor biogeographic zones of the World, and the holosericea group, represented by Palaearctic species. The characteristic features of the subgenus are the presence of two well-developed spermathecae, the symmetrical parameres and the ventral surface of the aedeagus covered by a hyaline envelope; the last character being a very good synapomorphy (A. Borkent, pers. comm.; P. Dominiak, pers. comm.). As the Patagonian species lack the aedeagal hyaline envelope, we prefer not to include them within Sebessia.</p> <p>Key to species</p> <p>1.

The female is clearly distinguished from other species by the pyriform spermatheca and by the presence in the subgenital plate of two slender processes arising from laterodistal margins of gonopore.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039487A8FFC34435FE043ECE8B96FD3E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
