Classification: Milichiella aberrata
Differs from congeners in the combination of subshiny black frons and ocellar triangle, brown microtomentose T2-4 and mostly shiny black T5
subshiny black
subshiny (slightly brown microtomentose), scutellum brown microtomentose, pleura subshiny (slightly grey microtomentose)
apical seta on cercus longer than epandrial setae
0.4x as long as epandrium high, slightly dilated posteriorly (1.3x), 1.6x as long as high
?brown grey microtomentose, scutellum same
The type series consists of one male from Bolivia and one female from Peru, both of which are in SMTD. The male was designated as the lectotype by Brake (2009). The female probably does not belong to the same species because the mesonotum is brown grey microtomentose and not subshiny as in the male
