Idth at posterior margin/length: 4.4?.7. Mediotergite 2 sculpture: with some sculpture, mostly near posterior margin. Outer margin of hypopygium: with a wide, medially folded, transparent, semi esclerotized area; usually with 4 or more pleats. Ovipositor thickness: about same width throughout its length. Ovipositor sheaths length/metatibial length: 0.6?.7. Length of fore wing veins r/2RS: 1.4?.6. Length of fore wing veins 2RS/2M: 1.1?.3. Length of fore wing veins 2M/(RS+M)b: 0.9?.0. Pterostigma length/width: 2.6?.0. Point of insertion of vein r in pterostigma: about half way point length of pterostigma. Angle of vein r with fore wing anterior margin: more or less perpendicular to fore wing margin. Shape of junction of veins r and 2RS in fore wing: strongly angulated, sometimes with a knob. Male. The only specimen available is in poor VarlitinibMedChemExpress ARRY-334543 condition. Molecular data. Sequences in BOLD: 5, barcode compliant sequences: 5. Biology/ecology. Solitary (Fig. 293). Hosts: Crambidae, Neurophyseta clymenalis.Jose L. Fernandez-Triana et al. / ZooKeys 383: 1?65 (2014)Distribution. Costa Rica, ACG. Comments. The humeral complex has a small area on outer margin that is PP58 site slightly lighter in color than the rest, but we still consider it as fully brown nd thus it is coded as such in the Lucid software. Etymology. We dedicate this species to Keiner Arag recognition of his diligent efforts for the ACG Programa de Paratax omos and Estaci Biol ica Botarrama.

Paratypes. 1 (CNC). COSTA RICA: Guanacaste, ACG database code: DHJPAR0026208. Description. Female. Body color: body mostly dark except for some sternites which may be pale. Antenna color: scape, pedicel, and flagellum dark. Coxae color (pro-, meso-, metacoxa): dark, dark, dark. Femora color (pro-, meso-, metafemur): pale, pale, anteriorly pale/posteriorly dark. Tibiae color (pro-, meso-, metatibia): pale, pale, mostly dark but anterior 0.2 or less pale. Tegula and humeral complex color: both dark. Pterostigma color: dark. Fore wing veins color: mostly dark (a few veins may be unpigmented). Antenna length/body length: antenna about as long as body (head to apex of metasoma); if slightly shorter, at least extending beyond anterior 0.7 metasoma length. Body in lateral view: not distinctly flattened dorso entrally. Body length (head to apex of metasoma): 2.0 mm or less or 2.1?.2 mm. Fore wing length: 2.1?.2 mm. Ocular cellar line/posterior ocellus diameter: 2.3?.5. Interocellar distance/posterior ocellus diameter: 2.0?.2. Antennal flagellomerus 2 length/width: 3.2 or more. Tarsal claws: simple. Metafemur length/width: 3.4?.5. Metatibia inner spur length/metabasitarsus length: 0.4?.5. Anteromesoscutum: mostly with shallow, dense punctures (separated by less than 2.0 ?its maximum diameter). Mesoscutellar disc: mostly punctured. Number of pits in scutoscutellar sulcus: 5 or 6 or 7 or 8. Maximum height of mesoscutellum lunules/maximum height of lateral face of mesoscutellum: 0.4?.5. Propodeum areola: completely defined by carinae, including transverse carina extending to spiracle. Propodeum background sculpture: partly sculptured, especially on anterior.Idth at posterior margin/length: 4.4?.7. Mediotergite 2 sculpture: with some sculpture, mostly near posterior margin.
