Paradelia intersecta
The Paradelia intersecta section
The monophyly of the present section, which includes all species of Paradelia less P. lunatifrons, is strongly supported in the male sex by (1) the absence of setae and setulae laterally on the posterior lobes of sternite V, and (2) the absence of a posterior submedian seta on the pregonites. According to Karl (1943, cf. Fig. 54), the presently unrecognized species P. alpestris (Karl) has indeed lateral setae on sternite V, but this is supposedly an artifact of the drawing.
