Marilia +ophthalmica Ulmer 1912: 248 [Type locality: Germany? (Baltic amber); ZSMC?; male?]
DISTRIBUTION. Baltic amber.








Translation by Sherlock:
Marilia ophthalmica n. sp.
Koerper2) low-dark-brown, almost blackish-brown; first feeler member the remaining members much more brightly, grey-yellow; Tracer and legs dark-brown, the Tibien and Tarsen more brightly, dark-amber-yellow. Forward wing brown, with dark-brown more closely Behaarung, with dark-brown veins and identicale edge lashes; on the Flugel numerous yellow hair is particularly situated, in the apicalen portion; Hinterfluegel also darkly. Spur number of 2, 4, 4 (M F). Eyes of the M (Fig. 360) very largely, those of the F normally; Subapicalsporne of the Mitteltibie at the end of the first third, those the Rintertibie to)ude of the second third. Wings (Fig. 361, 362b) are for the kind rather broadly, forward wings at the Apex hardly preferred, more rounded; the Nervatur of the forward wing is up to a additional gesticlte cell V, like also a Thyridiumzelle with the F available is alike; the radius flows into the first Apicalsektor; the Discoidalzelle is approximately as long as their handle; Cell I goes a piece to the Discoidalzelle down, is pointed therefore and to long as cell II, which is limited even; Cell III is inclined limited, about as broadly as II, but many broader than cell IV; Cell V (cell VI with the F) is as long as cell IV, broader than this, a little inclined limited; the last Apicalzellen is longer; the Thyridiumzelle (F, Fig. 362b) is very long and narrow and extends not as far apical as the Discoidalzelle; in the Hinterfluegel of the M (Fig. 361) the radius is strong and flows distalwaerts from the center of the first Apicalsektors into these; the Discoidalzelle is somewhat broader, but shorter than in the Hinterfluegel, from similar shape; so also Apicalzelle I is pointedly, cell II even limited and shorter than cell I; Cell III however is winkelig limited; Cell IV seems to be just as long as cell III; further is not visible. Only the costale edge portion with the radius flowing into the first sector is to be seben by the Hinterfluegel of the F. - the genital organs of the M (Fig. 363) are clear; the Genitalfuefe is briefly, staebchenartig (also in ventral opinion not more broadly than in the inclined lateral opinion represented by the figure), closely behaart and roughened; the appendices of praeanales are slimmer, long behaart; the back segment of the Xth segment has the shape half eyes opened (down), which covers the Penis.
Body length: 6-7 mm; Length of the forward wing: 7-8 1/3 mm; Wing voltage thus about 16-19 mm; M smaller than F.
Material: 1 M, u204, Coll. Koeng, box 28, in the citizen of Berlin museum; 1 M, u304, in the museum Danzig; 1 F, u5719, Coll. KLEBS; furthermore still 1 M, x 8096, Coll. KLEBS, which is fewer well hereditaryold, but probably also here belongs; but the genital feet seem young too zein.
NB. To another type probably belong the M u4061 (Coll. KLEBS); it is considerably larger (length of the forward wing; 12 mm), also like previous very large eyes and resembles Nervatur of the forward wing has; the Apicalzelle II is somewhat inclined limited; the Hinterfluegel and the genital organs are not visible.
2) I describe after the F; those one M (u284) lat generally more amber colours, and only gewiese portions point to original dark colouring are; the other M (u304) is darkly however fewer well stored also in the whole.
