Host Leucoptera coffeella (Guérin-Méneville & Perrottet, 1842) (Lepidoptera: Lyonetiidae) [on Coffea arabica L.] (according to original literature and labels under the Brazil material). Also “coffee leaf miner” on the Guadeloupe paratype labels is likely to denote L. coffeella. Distribution New to Brazil and Costa Rica; Dominica, Guadeloupe, Puerto Rico. Remarks The hypopygium does not reach the apex of the metasoma in specimens we have examined, and specimens from Costa Rica are slightly darker (brown).
