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

Dolichogenidea jaimelewisi Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault sp. nov. Figs 68 A – F, 69 A-F Type material. Holotype. Costa Rica • Female, CNC; Guanacaste, Area de Conservación Guanacaste, Sector Cacao, Sendero Nayo; 10.92446, -85.46953; 1,090 m; 13.viii.2010; Manuel Pereira leg.; Host: Herpetogramma Dapkey 27; Voucher code: DHJPAR 0040384; Host voucher code: 10-SRNP-35722. Paratypes. Costa Rica • 2 Females, CNC; DHJPAR 0031233, DHJPAR 0040398. Diagnostic description. Anteromesoscutum punctures near end of notauli fused, unlike punctures on rest of anteromesoscutum; T 1 mostly parallel-sided but posterior 0.3 slightly narrowing towards posterior margin; T 1 mostly sculptured on posterior 0.5; T 2 smooth; T 2 transverse and comparatively narrow, its width at posterior margin> 3.0 × its length medially; scape ventrally yellow-brown, distinctly paler colored than dorsal side; tegula brown, same color than humeral complex; pro- and mesocoxae partially pale brown partially yellow; metacoxa mostly dark brown to black but with posterior 0.1–0.2 yellow; metafemur yellow; metatibia mostly yellow, with posterior 0.1–0.2 brown; body length: 2.81–2.88 mm; fore wing length: 2.94–3.03 mm. Among all species with T 2 smooth and dark coxae Dolichogenidea jaimelewisi can be distinguished by T 1 sculpture, T 2 shape, anteromesoscutum punctures, and scape, tegula and leg color. Another species, D. juanmatai, is similar morphologically but has different coloration of scape, tegula and legs, as well as different puncture sculpture on anteromesoscutum. Distribution. Costa Rica. Biology. Gregarious. Crambidae: Herpetogramma salbialis, Herpetogramma Dapkey 27, unidentified lepidopteran with provisional name ‘ spiloBioLep 01 BioLep 617 ’. DNA barcoding data. BIN BOLD: AAM 5738 (6 sequences, 6 barcode compliant). Etymology. Named in honor of Mr. Jaime Lewis of San Jose, and a volunteer taxonomist for Hemiptera in the Costa Rican National Museum, BioAlfa and the former INBio (Instituto Nacional de Biodiversity) in recognition of his decade dedicated to the biodiversity understanding of the Hemiptera of Costa Rica.
