Dolichogenidea robertofernandezi Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault sp. nov. Fig. 117 A – F Type material. Holotype. Costa Rica • Female, CNC; Guanacaste, Area de Conservación Guanacaste, Sector Santa Rosa, Bosque San Emilio; 10.84389, -85.61384; 300 m; 1.v.2007; D. H. Janzen & W. Hallwachs leg.; Malaise trap; Voucher code: DHJPAR 0013663. Paratypes. Costa Rica • 5 Females, CNC; DHJPAR 0031824, DHJPAR 0031724, DHJPAR 0031743, DHJPAR 0031707, DHJPAR 0031703. Diagnostic description. T 1 mostly parallel-sided, its length medially ~ 2.5 × its width at posterior margin; T 2 transverse, its length medially 4.0–5.0 × its width at posterior margin; T 1 mostly sculptured on posterior 0.5; T 2 mostly sculptured, central smooth area very small; tegula white-yellow, clearly paler in color than yellow humeral complex; pro- and mesocoxae yellow-white or yellow; metacoxa mostly yellow with dark brown spot on anterior 0.3; most of metafemur and metatibia dark brown to black; body length: 2.50–2.85 mm; fore wing length: 2.48–2.75 mm. Among all species with T 2 at least partially smooth and pro- and mesocoxae pale, D. robertofernandezi can be distinguished by T 1 shape, T 2 shape and sculpture, and color of tegula, humeral complex, coxae, mesofemur, and metatibia. Two species (D. isidrochaconi and D. jennyphillipsae) are very similar morphologically to D. robertofernandezi and can only be reliably separated by DNA barcodes (see comments and details under the diagnostic description of D. jennyphillipsae). Distribution. Costa Rica. Biology. No host data available. DNA barcoding data. BIN BOLD: BOLD: AAC 8392 (33 sequences, 19 barcode compliant). Etymology. Named in honor of Mr Roberto Fernandez of Costa Rica’s Cartago and ACG in his old role as environmental advisor for Costa Rica’s National Electric Agency (ICE) and new role as a member of the directorate of BioAlfa, the ACG / GDFCF project to facilitate bioliteracy for the non-damaging conservation of wild tropical biodiversity.
