Dolichogenidea luzmariaromeroae Fernandez-Triana & Boudreault sp. nov. Figs 89 A – F, 157 B Type material. Holotype. Costa Rica • Female, CNC; Alajuela, Area de Conservación Guanacaste, Sector Rincon Rain Forest, Sendero Anonas; 10.90528, -85.27882; 405 m; 02.vi.2011; Pablo Umana leg.; Host: phyBioLep 01 BioLep 758; Voucher code: DHJPAR 0043141; Host voucher code: 11-SRNP-42637. Diagnostic description. Propodeum with complete areola; T 1 1.7 × as long as wide at posterior margin; T 2 transverse, its width at posterior margin 3.5 × its central length; T 1 with strong sculpture on posterior 0.5; T 2 mostly sculptured but with some smooth areas near posterior margin; ovipositor sheath 0.7 × as long as metatibia length; tegula yellow, humeral complex half yellow half brown; all coxae, mesofemur and most of metafemur (except for anterior 0.2 which is yellow-white) brown to dark brown; body length: 2.45 mm; fore wing length: 2.63 mm. While D. luzmariaromeroae has T 2 almost entirely sculptured (in that sense it would appear to run through the first half of couplet 9), there are smooth areas near posterior margin that are different from other species with sculptured T 2. Additionally, this species can be distinguished by the color of its legs, tegula and humeral complex, length of ovipositor sheath, propodeum areola, and shape and sculpture of T 1 and T 2. Distribution. Costa Rica. Biology. Solitary. Pyralidae: Phycitinae, phyBioLep 01 BioLep 758. DNA barcoding data. BIN BOLD: ABX 5620 (3 sequences, 3 barcode compliant). Etymology. Named in honor of Sra. Luz Maria Romero, the primary technical guidance for the daily databasing and Species Pages done by the 30 - member parataxonomist program of GDFCF for ACG, as well as her two decades of inventing the Programa de Educacion Biologica (PEB) for Area de Conservación Guanacaste.
