Dolichogenidea josephfridmani Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault sp. nov. Fig. 77 A – F Type material. Holotype. Costa Rica • Female, CNC; Guanacaste, Area de Conservación Guanacaste, Sector El Hacha, Sendero Bejuquilla; 11.03004, -85.52699; 280 m; 05.iv.1999; D. H. Janzen & W. Hallwachs leg.; Malaise trap; Voucher code: DHJPAR 0012558. Paratypes. Costa Rica • 2 Females, 1 Male, CNC; DHJPAR 0024737, DHJPAR 0024730, DHJPAR 0024738. Diagnostic description. Anteromesoscutum dull, with rather coarse punctures; scutellar disc mostly smooth and shiny, with very few punctures along margins; fore wing vein R 1 significantly longer than pterostigma and> 4.0 × as long as the space between its end and end of vein 3 RSb; propodeum with coarse sculpture; T 1 strongly sculptured on posterior 0.6; T 2 almost entirely sculptured but smooth centrally or along margins; T 2 transverse, its width at posterior margin 4.0 × its central length; tegula and humeral complex yellow; pterostigma mostly yellow or white-yellow, with thin brown margins; pro- and mesocoxae brown, metacoxa dark brown to black; metafemur mostly dark brown, metatibia yellow on anterior ~ 0.4, rest dark brown; body length: 2.35–2.73 mm; fore wing length: 2.50–2.60 mm. The shape and sculpture of T 1 and T 2, sculpture of mesosoma (especially contrast between anteromesoscutum, scutellar disc and propodeum), and color of tegula, humeral complex, pterostigma and legs distinguish this species among all others with T 2 sculptured but transverse. Distribution. Costa Rica. Biology. No host data available. DNA barcoding data. BIN BOLD: AAE 8602 (20 sequences, 20 barcode compliant). Etymology. Named in honor of Mr. Joseph Fridman of Gingko Bioworks in recognition of his warm and detailed 2022 welcome to representatives from GDFCF / ACG exploring the potential of a synthetic biology foundry with strong potential for non-damaging development of complex tropical biodiversity genomics as a potential product from wild tropical ecosystems, and therefore increasing their intact desirability by tropical societies.
