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

Dolichogenidea frankjoycei Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault sp. nov. Fig. 55 A – E Type material. Holotype. Costa Rica • Female, CNC; Alajuela, Area de Conservación Guanacaste, Sector Rincón Rain Forest, Sendero Tucán; 10.9042, -85.2712; 410 m; 5.iii.2012; Anabelle Cordoba leg.; Host: Platynota rostranaDHJ 02; Voucher code: DHJPAR 0049373; Host voucher code: 12-SRNP-40934. Diagnostic description. F 15 1.4 × as long as wide; T 1 and T 2 heavily sculptured with strong longitudinal striae; T 1 length <1.5 × T 1 width at posterior margin; T 2 rectangular, covering most surface of tergum; ovipositor sheath clearly shorter than metatibia length (0.80 ×); metafemur mostly brown; metatibia dark brown to black on posterior 0.5; body length: 2.50 mm; fore wing length: 2.60 mm. Among all species with heavily sculptured T 1 and T 2, T 1 comparatively broad and T 2 rectangular, D. frankjoycei can be distinguished by the color of metafemur and metatibia, and length of F 15. The only species closely similar morphologically is D. rociocordobae which has slightly longer ovipositor sheath and slightly shorter F 15, as well as different hosts and DNA barcode. Distribution. Costa Rica. Biology. Solitary. Tortricidae, Platynota rostranaDHJ 01, Platynota rostranaDHJ 02. DNA barcoding data. BIN BOLD: ABA 3469 (7 sequences, 5 barcode compliant). Etymology. Named in honor of Dr. Frank Joyce of Monteverde, Cuajiniquil and ACG in recognition of his decades of support for the biodiversity conservation efforts by Area de Conservación Guanacaste and the NGO Guanacaste Dry Forest Conservation Fund in northwestern Costa Rica.

Abstract

Dolichogenidea frankjoycei Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault sp. nov. Fig. 55 A – E Type material. Holotype.

Diagnostic description.
