Dolichogenidea alexandrei Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault 2025, sp. nov.

Dolichogenidea alexandrei Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault sp. nov. Fig. 14 A – F Type material. Holotype. Guatemala • Female, CNC; Zacapa, San Lorenzo; 15°6'58.10"N, 89°37'59.91"W; 1,700 m; xi.1986; M. Sharkey leg; Voucher code: CNC 650284. Diagnostic description. T 1 and T 2 heavily sculptured with strong longitudinal striae (rarely strong reticulated sculpture) covering entire surface of T 2 and most of T 1; T 1 mostly parallel-sided but posterior 0.1–0.3 slightly narrowing towards posterior margin; T 1 length 1.8 × its width at posterior margin; T 2 trapezoidal and rather small, not covering entire surface of tergum; ovipositor sheath 1.6 × metatibia length; wings hyaline; tegula and humeral complex dark brown; pterostigma mostly yellow-white but with thin brown margins; legs almost entirely brown to dark brown (except for yellow protibia and protarsus, and very small, paler spots on posterior 0.1 of pro- and mesofemora and anterior 0.1–0.2 of meso- and metatibiae); body length: 2.50 mm; fore wing length: 2.88 mm. Among all species with heavily sculptured T 1 and T 2, this species is distinctive by the comparatively thinner T 1 (≥ 2.0 × its width at posterior margin), shape of T 2, and color of wings and legs. It looks similar to D. yungas but D. alexandrei has a longer vein R 1 in fore wing, first pair of legs paler colored, a much broader T 1 and T 2, longer ovipositor and ovipositor sheath and wings not infuscated.

The second author dedicates this species to her dear brother Alexandre Boudreault in appreciation for his love and support, fun times, and shared special moments. Alexandre is a genius with electronics. He always has new projects going on like a new gadget for his son’s car racetrack or a new alarm clock made from scratch!
