2 • Insecta MundI 0639, July 2018 Nakahara et al. Introduction Despite the fact that they are a common component of butterfly communities in the Neotropics, the nymphalid subtribe Euptychiina has remained one of the poorly understood groups of Neotropical butterflies (Papilionoidea) until recently. The poor state of our knowledge regarding Euptychiina was partly due to widespread wing pattern homogeneity and the lack of comprehensive taxonomic study, contributing to the chaotic generic classification of this group. For example, only eight out of 23 euptychiine genera were recovered as monophyletic in the most comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of Euptychiina to date (Peña et al. 2010). Several of those genera have subsequently been proven, with denser taxon sampling, to require generic reorganization (e.g. Freitas et al. 2012, 2013, 2016, 2018; Nakahara et al. 2015a). Our state of knowledge regarding Euptychiina is thus improving, although further investigation is still required to better understand their taxonomy and systematics. Currently, over 400 described species and 48 genera are recognized within Euptychiina (Lamas 2004; Brévignon 2005; Peña and Lamas 2005; Peña et al. 2010, 2011; Freitas et al. 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2018; Brévignon and Benmesbah, 2012; Matos-Maraví et al. 2013; Zacca et al. 2013, 2017; Nakahara et al. 2015a, 2015b, 2016; Costa et al. 2016). The Lamas (2004) checklist listed 80 undescribed species for Euptychiina, a remarkable proportion (20%) for butterflies. Moreover, several recent works (e.g. Cong and Grishin 2014; Barbosa et al. 2015; Nakahara et al. 2015b) have shown remarkable discrepancies between perceived and actual species richness of Euptychiina, which turns out to be significantly more speciose than estimated by Lamas (2004). In fact, we estimate the subtribe to contain over 500 species in 70 genera (unpubl. data). Partially in order to provide a baseline for a firmer understanding of spatial variation in species diversity of Euptychiina, many species-rich genera (e.g. Caeruleuptychia Forster, 1964, Euptychia Hübner, 1818, Taygetis Hübner, [1819], Magneuptychia Forster, 1964, Cissia Doubleday, 1848, Paryphthimoides Forster, 1964, Pareuptychia Forster, 1964, Euptychoides Forster, 1964, Hermeuptychia Forster, 1964, Zischkaia Forster, 1964, Chloreuptychia Forster, 1964, Forsterinaria Gray, 1973, Splendeuptychia Forster, 1964, Yphthimoides Forster, 1964) are the subject of ongoing taxonomic revisionary work by the authors and collaborators (see http://www. flmnh.ufl.edu/museum-voices/euptychiina/). The purpose of this paper is to describe and name undescribed euptychiine taxa that will otherwise not fall into those generic revisions. A new genus, five new species and one new subspecies are described herein, and adults, genitalia illustrations and distribution maps are provided for all species. A brief review and species accounts are provided for Harjesia Forster, 1964 and Pseudeuptychia Forster, 1964, as an updated classification for these two genera from Lamas (2004). In addition, we remove Taygetis vrazi Kheil, 1896 from Harjesia and place this taxon in Pseudodebis Forster, 1964, based on both morphology and molecular data. Materials and Methods Morphological study. External morphological characters were studied by soaking legs, labial palpi, and abdomens in hot 10% KOH solution for 5–10 minutes, dissecting, and storing in glycerine after examination. Genitalia were stained with chlorazol black in order to visualize the membranous structures. Drawings were done using a camera lucida attached to either a Leica MZ 16 stereomicroscope or a Nikon SMZ2800. Terminology for wing venation and wing pattern elements follows Nakahara et al. (2018); nomenclature of genitalia also follows Nakahara et al. (2018). However, we apply the terms “ductus ejaculatorius”, “manica” and “vesica” sensu Pierce (1914); “phallus”, “phallobase” and “aedeagus” sensu Klots (1956: 102–103) (see Fig. 3). Snodgrass (1935) apparently introduced the term “phallobase”, but since the definition of this term was vaguely defined in terms of Lepidoptera, we follow Klots (1956).

DNA was extracted from leg or thoracic tissue samples that were either dried or stored in 96% ethanol. Voucher specimens are deposited at MGCL, DZUP and ZUEC. DNA extraction methods, PCR conditions and primers used follow Nakahara et al. (2015a) for cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) and Elongation factor 1-alpha (EF1-α), and Nakahara et al. (2018) for GAPDH. Additionally, a 591bp fragment of RPS5 (ribosomal protein S5) was amplified using the primers RPS5degF (5ʹ ATGGCNGARGARAAYTGGAAYGA 3ʹ) and RPS5degR (5ʹ CGGTTRGAYTTRGCAACACG 3ʹ) (Wahlberg and Wheat 2008). Sequences for additional specimens were taken from Peña et al. (2011) and Matos-Maraví et al. (2013) (Table 1). Sequences were assembled using Geneious 10 (Biomatters) and aligned using MAFFT v.7 (Katoh and Standley 2013). The genes were partitioned by codon position and partitions and models were selected using ModelFinder (Kalyaanamoorthy et al. 2017) in IQ-TREE 1.6.0 (Nguyen et al. 2015). Thereafter, 200 tree searches were performed in IQ-TREE to find the most likely tree. Support was calculated based on 2000 non-parametric bootstrap replicates. The tree was rooted with Neonympha mitchellii French, 1889 based on prior information (Matos-Maraví et al. 2013). The genetic distance was calculated using DNADIST version 3.5c. Databasing and georeferencing. Specimens and their label data were databased using Microsoft Access. The locality data were subsequently georeferenced with as much detail as possible, unless such information was already available on the label. Locality coordinates are provided in the “Examined specimens” section for each taxon. For holotype and lectotype specimens, information on the labels were written verbatim with labels separated by double forward slashes. Taxonomy Taxa are listed in phylogenetic order, following Espeland et al. (in review). Pseudodebis Forster, 1964 Pseudodebis: Forster 1964: 75. Type species.

Our molecular phylogeny (Fig. 1) recovered Pseudodebis as a monophyletic group with high support (bs = 100), including the type species, Taygetis valentina (Cramer, 1779), as sister to the remainder of the sampled Pseudodebis taxa. Two species formerly placed in Taygetomorpha Miller, 2004 (P. celia (Cramer, 1779) and P. puritana (Weeks, 1902)) are found to be part of the monophyletic Pseudodebis. This is in accordance with Matos-Maraví et al. (2013), where Taygetomorpha was synonymized under Pseudodebis. Pseudodebis vrazi n. comb. is placed as sister to P. puritana (Weeks, 1902) with a relatively high support (bs = 91). Its placement in Pseudodebis is also supported based on morphology, namely the reduction of the brachia. All other described species of Pseudodebis appear to have reduced (or almost absent) brachia, although the degree of reduction varies across species (Forster 1964; SN pers. obs.). Pseudodebis vrazi n. comb. is readily distinguished from P. puritana by the following characters (in addition to others): 1) relatively small size (forewing length of P. puritana: 38–40 mm (n = 3)); 2) VHW postdiscal band appears as a pair of very close, parallel lines in P. vrazi n. comb. (appears as a regular, single band in P. puritana); 3) ocellus in VHW cell Cu1 present with a pupil in a black area, ringed with orange in P. vrazi n. comb. (present as a creamy-white smudge in P. puritana); 4) apical process of valva broadens at terminal point (in lateral view) in P. vrazi n. comb. (rather consistent in width in P. puritana); 5) lamella antevaginalis appears as a “finger-like” sclerotized plate projecting posteriorly in P. vrazi n. comb. (appears as a broad, rather rectangular plate in P. puritana). Pseudodebis vrazi n. comb. is also a lowland species, whereas P. puritana occurs in cloud forest habitats mostly above 1300 m. Forster (1964) considered Taygetis rectifascia Weymer, 1907 to be a possible synonym of Taygetis vrazi, although these two species are clearly not conspecific. Distribution. This species is known to date from four localities scattered across the Amazon basin in Venezuela (Amazonas), Brazil (Rondônia) and Peru (Loreto and Madre de Dios). Remarks. Until the present study, P. vrazi n. comb. was a rather enigmatic taxon known only from two specimens, the male lectotype from the Río Atabapo, Venezuela, housed in NMPC, and a female specimen from the Río Samiria, Peru, in the MUSM (Lamas 1999). Kheil (1896a) described Taygetis vrazi based on the previously mentioned Venezuelan male lectotype and a paralectotype from Rio Negro, Brazil, although we were unable to locate this Brazilian specimen supposedly housed in MNHU (Lamas 1999). Despite the fact that subsequent authors (e.g. Weymer 1910; Forster 1964) provided differing taxonomic opinions about this species, it remained in Taygetis for more than 100 years. Lamas (1999) reviewed its history of classification, designated a lectotype for T. vrazi, and reported the aforementioned Peruvian female for the first time. Moreover, Lamas (1999) transferred the species from Taygetis to the genus Harjesia Forster, 1964, stating that the “male syntype held at NMPC shows conclusively that T. vrazi is a member of the genus Harjesia”, although no further justification for this taxonomic change was provided. Subsequently, Lamas (2004) retained this systematic placement, and the species remained in Harjesia until now (e.g. Warren et al. 2017). Recently, during the course of examining the euptychiine collection at MUSM, SN discovered that one worn male specimen from La Colpa, Peru, identified as “Harjesia sp. n. 4” (listed as one of the undescribed Harjesia species in Lamas (2004)) actually represents P. vrazi n. comb. based on comparison of the male genitalia of this specimen and the male lectotype. This male specimen from La Colpa, Peru, was sequenced (KW_15_003_Pseudodebis_vrazi_01; see Fig. 1) to help clarify its systematic status, and we consequently regard this species as a member of Pseudodebis Forster, 1964. Morphology also reinforces removal of the species from Harjesia since the type species of that genus, H. blanda (Möschler, 1877), does have a rather developed brachia unlike P. vrazi n. comb. and other Pseudodebis. In addition, a male specimen from Rondônia, Brazil, in MGCL was discovered as the only known specimen of P. vrazi n. comb. from that country, increasing the number of known specimens for this species to four.
Insecta MundI 0639, July 2018 • 7New taxa from the subtribe euptychiiNa Harjesia Forster, 1964 Harjesia: Forster 1964: 78. Type species. Taygetis blanda Möschler 1877: 325, pl. 3, fig. 12. ― by original designation. Forster (1964) erected Harjesia to accommodate two species, Taygetis blanda Möschler, 1877 and Euptychia obscura Butler, 1867, and designated T. blanda as the type species of the genus, even though T. blanda was considered a subspecies of Taygetis sylvia Bates, 1866 by Weymer (1910). Concerning Harjesia, Forster (1964) stated “Characteristic for this genus is mainly the male genitalia with the narrow tip of the valva”, providing no comparison with other genera. Subsequently, Lamas (2004) followed this classification and also included Euptychia oreba Butler, 1870 (regarding Euptychia gulnare Butler, 1870 and Euptychia civica Weymer, 1911 (nomen nudum) as junior subjective synonyms of this species), Euptychia griseola Weymer, 1911 and Taygetis vrazi Kheil, 1896 as members of Harjesia, in addition to proposing Euptychia eremita Weymer, 1911 and Taygetis indecisa Ribeiro, 1931 as junior subjective synonyms of E. obscura and E. gulnare, respectively. Lamas (2004) also listed four undescribed species of Harjesia, of which two (H. argentata n. sp. and Orotaygetis surui n. gen. et n. sp.) are described below. Freitas et al. (2016) recently treated E. griseola as a synonym of E. punctata Weymer, 1911 and moved this taxon out of Harjesia by placing it in its own monotypic genus, Sepona Freitas and Barbosa, 2016, based on molecular and morphological data. As discussed above, Pseudodebis vrazi n. comb. is removed from Harjesia and considered conspecific with one of the new species of Harjesia listed by Lamas (2004). Three species, namely Harjesia blanda, H. obscura and H. argentata n. sp., do form a monophyletic group with a high support (bs = 99, see Fig. 1), and we regard Harjesia as a small monophyletic genus to accommodate these three species. Finally, the remaining species in Harjesia (sensu Lamas 2004) appear not to belong in the clade containing the type for the genus (see statement above), and thus will need to be transferred to another genus (Espeland et al. unpubl. data). Systematic placement and diagnosis. Harjesia appears to be a member of a clade consisting of Forsterinaria Gray, 1973, Posttaygetis Forster, 1964, and Parataygetis Forster, 1964 (Fig. 1), but support in this part of the tree is low. Harjesia is distinguished from Forsterinaria by having a ringed ocellus with white pupil in VFW cell M1 and often in adjacent cells, whereas these ocelli appear just as white pupils or a white patch in Forsterinaria; ocelli in VHW cells M2 and M3 are ringed, and in Harjesia these are large, whereas in Forsterinaria they are small or appear just as simple white pupils; the brachia are about half the length of the uncus in Harjesia (except for H. obscura, in which the brachia are reduced), whereas the brachia are absent or reduced in Forsterinaria. Harjesia is distinguished from Posttaygetis by the absence of a horizontal creamy band in the VHW discal cell that also extends along M3, in addition to the absence of a reduced and basally placed ocellus in VHW cell M2, whereas these characters are present in Posttaygetis. As mentioned above, the brachia are about half the length of the uncus in Harjesia (except for H. obscura), whereas the brachia are absent or reduced in Posttaygetis. Among other characters, Harjesia is distinguished from Parataygetis by having a narrow, rounded apical process of the valva, whereas the distal side is broad and serrated in Parataygetis.

Etymology. This species is named after the Peruvian institution Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, the oldest university on the American continent. The majority of the type series are deposited in the museum (MUSM) belonging to this university. The specific epithet is treated as a latinized masculine noun in apposition. Distribution. This species is known from the eastern foothills of the central Peruvian Andes to Bolivia, where it is likely sympatric with E. fida. Systematic placement and diagnosis. This species is placed as sister to Ecuadorian specimens phenotypically similar to Euptychoides fida (Weymer, 1911) based on molecular data (unpublished). Although there are some slight wing pattern differences between Ecuadorian specimens and the syntypes of E. fida from Bolivia, they appear to be conspecific or at least sister taxa, and we thus describe this new species provisionally in Euptychoides. Euptychoides sanmarcos n. sp. is distinguished from syntypes of Euptychoides fida in MNHU (two males and one female, examined) by having a relatively straight VHW postdiscal band and lacking the whitish coloration distal to VHW postdiscal band. The VHW postdiscal band appears somewhat jagged in syntypes of E. fida, and there is a whitish coloration distal of this band, which also extends along the VHW inner margin. In addition, the VFW postdiscal band seems to terminate close to 2A in E. sanmarcos n. sp., whereas this band terminates half way between Cu2 and 2A in those syntypes of E. fida. Based on the female genitalia of one of the syntypes of E. fida dissected by Lee D. Miller (genitalia vial M-9151), the female genitalia of E. fida and this species appear to be similar. The genitalia vial number (M-9051) associated with this female syntype does not correspond to the genitalia of this E. fida, and the correct vial (M-9151) was determined by the genitalia dissection list prepared by Lee D. Miller, with Jacqueline Y. Miller’s assistance. It should also be noted that this female syntype has been erroneously identified as a male and is indicated as such on labels pinned with the specimen. Pseudeuptychia Forster, 1964 Pseudeuptychia: Forster 1964: 86. Type species: Euptychia languida Butler, 1871: 282 ― by original designation. Forster (1964) described Pseudeuptychia to contain two species, namely Euptychia languida Butler, 1871 and E. hemileuca Staudinger, [1886], and designated the former as the type species of the genus. Pseudeuptychia was regarded as a somewhat ‘isolated and distinctive genus’ by Forster, in regard to its DHW black ocelli and distinctive male genitalia. Presumably based on its overall appearance, Pseudeuptychia was associated with Euptychia Hübner, 1818 and Pareuptychia Forster, 1964 in the
Insecta MundI 0639, July 2018 • 15New taxa from the subtribe euptychiiNa original description of the genus, but the genitalia do not show any strong affinities to support a close relationship to these two genera, and our molecular data show that these three genera are not closely related (unpublished data). Lamas (2004) retained Forster’s (1964) classification and listed two additional undescribed species in the genus. We here describe one of them, in addition to describing a new subspecies of Pseudeuptychia languida. In addition to describing these two new taxa, we also figure the female genitalia of P. hemileuca (Fig. 13a, b), a poorly known Pseudeuptychia species known only from the single female syntype in the MNHU (Fig. 12a). The new species described and named below, Pseudeuptychia cuzquenya n. sp., is also known only from a single female specimen, and clearly a discovery of the male, as well as any data regarding these taxa, would be extremely valuable in improving our understanding of these rare Neotropical butterflies. Systematic placement and diagnosis. Our molecular data suggest that Pseudeuptychia is sister to Chloreuptychia herseis (Godart, [1824]) (unpublished data), which affinity is also supported by the form of lamella antevaginalis, but a comprehensive phylogenetic study of Euptychiina, to confirm the most appropriate generic classification, is still underway. Pseudeuptychia is distinguished from Chloreuptychia herseis by having a whitish coloration on the dorsal wing surface(s), which is absent in C. herseis, in addition to having the ocelli in VHW cells M2 and M3 more rounded (the ocelli in VHW cells M2 and M3 are elongated in C. herseis).

The specific epithet is derived from the Spanish word ‘cuzqueña’, meaning ‘a woman from Cuzco’, in reference to the fact that this species is represented by a single female from Cuzco department. This specific epithet is treated as a latinized feminine noun in apposition. Distribution. To date, this species is known only from the type locality, Valle de Marcapata, Cuzco, Peru. Systematic placement and diagnosis. Although we do not have DNA data to justify the placement of this species in Pseudeuptychia, we describe this species in this genus due to its morphological resemblance to the other two other species placed in this genus, namely P. languida (Butler, 1871) (type species) and P. hemileuca Staudinger, [1886]. All three species share a similar lamella antevaginalis which appears as a simple rounded plate surrounded by a membranous area. The female of Pseudeuptychia cuzquenya n. sp. is distinguished from the female of P. languida by lacking the prominent white area between the VHW discal band and postdiscal band, in addition to having the postdiscal band crossing the origin of Cu1, whereas the postdiscal band is located distal to the origin of Cu1 in P. languida. The lamella antevaginalis is similar to that of P. languida, but is distinguished by being semi-circular in ventral view, whereas this structure is somewhat oval in ventral view in P. languida. The male of P. cuzquenya n. sp. is unknown. Pseudeuptychia languida austrina Nakahara and Lamas, new subspecies (Fig. 12c–d, 13d–g, 16) Description and diagnosis.

The subspecific epithet is based on the feminine Latin adjective ‘austrina’, meaning southern, in reference to the southern distribution of this taxon compared to related taxa. Distribution. This subspecies is known to date from Peru (Cuzco and Madre de Dios) and Bolivia (La Paz and Cochabamba). Systematic placement and remarks. Based on existing museum specimens, we currently regard P. languida as likely representing three subspecies (but see discussion below): the nominate race of P. languida known from Colombia, with a large white patch on the DFW in the female and a strongly undulating VHW postdiscal band; an undescribed subspecies of P. languida from Ecuador to northcentral Peru (Huánuco), with an almost entirely dark DFW in the female and a strongly undulating VHW postdiscal band; and P. languida austrina n. ssp., from central Peru (Junín) to Bolivia (Cochabamba), with a white patch on the DFW in the female and less undulating VHW postdiscal band. However, given that we are not aware of any Ecuadorian females nor Colombian males of this species, we are unable to assess the range of the nominate race and the neighboring undescribed subspecies. Thus, here we limit the discussion to the southernmost subspecies, which is named and described herein, and wait to draw a conclusion regarding the taxonomic status of the aforementioned P. languida populations in the future. Although P. languida austrina n. ssp. was initially regarded as a distinct species by GL, based on the less undulating VHW postdiscal band, the sequenced specimen (MUSM-LEP-104271; DNA voucher: KW-15-034) grouped with Ecuadorian P. languida (DNA voucher: LEP-10517) with trivial COI sequence difference (0.0018) (unpubl. data). In addition, the female and putative male genitalia (Fig. 13d–g) of this subspecies are identical to those of specimens from further north in Peru (Huánuco), with similar VHW postdiscal bands to the nominate subspecies. These facts influenced our decision regarding the taxonomic status of this taxon. However, one of the known Bolivian females from Río Zongo (in MNHU, with the label “Euptychia languida Btl. det. T.G. Howarth. 1961.”) exhibits slight phenotypic differences in comparison with Peruvian females, especially in terms of the position of VHW postdiscal band, which reaches the ocelli in cells M2 and M3. The other female from the same site is similar to southern Peruvian females in that the VHW postdiscal band passes an area just distal of the origin of M3. The phenotype of
18 • Insecta MundI 0639, July 2018 Nakahara et al. the former specimen corresponds with two Bolivian males in the MUSM from Cochabamba. However, given that males and females of Bolivian specimens are not from the same site, combined with the lack of known southern Peruvian male specimens, we are unable to confidently evaluate differences between the Peruvian population and the Bolivian population, and also the phenotypic stability of the Bolivian population. Therefore, we restricted the type series to southern Peru, but given the small phenotypic difference, which could simply be broadly clinal, we currently consider the Bolivian specimens to represent the same taxon as that found in southern Peru. It should also be noted that two male specimens figured in D’Abrera (1988: 759) from the NHMUK, one from Chanchamayo, Peru and the other from Bolivia, , possess a white patch on the DFW, in contrast to the Bolivian males in the MUSM. Based on the less undulating VHW postdiscal band, we tentatively identify both specimens figured by D’Abrera (1988) as also representing P. l. austrina n. ssp. It remains to be determined whether the presence of white on the DFW is variable within or between populations. Clearly, a number of taxonomic questions remain in this genus, which can only be answered once new material and DNA sequence data become available.

VHW: Ground colour similar to forewing; general wing pattern similar to forewing, except as follows: postdiscal and submarginal bands occasionally appear fused to each other at anterior and posterior ends; six submarginal ocelli in cells Rs, M1, M2, M3, Cu1, and Cu2, those in cells M1 to Cu1 white-pupilled black spot ringed with orangish, ocelli in Rs sometimes lack black spot and ring somewhat indistinct, ocelli in Cu2 sometimes very small. Male genitalia (Fig. 15a–c): Tegumen appears somewhat semi-circular in lateral view, dorsally curved in lateral view, ventrally almost straight in lateral view; uncus about twice as long as tegumen in length, posterior half curved downwards, posterior end appears as downwardly projecting flange, sparse hairs visible on dorsal surface; brachia long, about 1.5× longer than uncus, apical point higher than uncus in lateral view, slightly curved inwards in dorsal view; combination of ventral arms from tegumen and dorsal arms from saccus curved near appendices angulares; appendices angulares present; saccus similar to uncus in terms of length; juxta present; valvae setose; bristle-like hairs present on distal side of valvae; distal margin concave, ventral margin longer than dorsal margin, ventral margin convex, dorsal margin basal to costa concave; phallus roughly straight, similar in length with tegumen plus uncus, distinction between phallobase and aedeagus unclear, cornuti absent; ventral surface of anal tube apparently not sclerotized. Female. Forewing length: 14.5 mm (n = 1). Similar to male except as follows: female foretarsus divided into five distinct tarsomeres; forewing appears somewhat broader; ground colour somewhat paler. Female genitalia (Fig. 15d, e): Lamella antevaginalis sclerotized, appearing as elongated subtriangular plate in ventral view; lateral plate of 8th abdominal segment sclerotized at posterior edge, anteriorly less sclerotized, fused with lamella antevaginalis at anterior margin; ductus bursae membranous, origin of ductus seminalis located at one-third distance from ostium bursae to corpus bursae, ductus bursae slightly sclerotized around origin of ductus seminalis; corpus bursae roughly circular in dorsal view, extending to fourth abdominal segment, with two signa located in middle, parallel to each other.

Nakahara) [MUSM-LEP-104252]; 1 ♀ (Genitalia vial SN-16-68 S. Nakahara) [MUSM-LEP-104254], (MUSM). Etymology. The specific epithet is a combination of the Greek neuter noun astron, meaning ‘star’, and the Greek feminine noun esthes, meaning ‘attire’, alluding to the ventral ocelli that are reminiscent of a starry sky, or ‘clothed with stars’. This specific epithet is treated as a latinized feminine noun in apposition. Distribution. This species is so far only known from Pampas del Heath, Madre de Dios, Peru. Systematic placement and diagnosis. Godartiana appears to be a distinctive lineage within Euptychiina, being sister to a large clade containing many species-rich genera such as Caeruleuptychia, Cissia, Taygetis, etc. (Espeland et al. in review). Godartiana astronesthes n. sp. can be confidently placed in Godartiana based on its rippled/mottled ventral wing pattern and well-developed brachia (brachia longer than uncus). Godartiana astronesthes n. sp. is similar to G. armilla but is distinguished by the
20 • Insecta MundI 0639, July 2018 Nakahara et al. combination of following characters: 1) relatively small adult size; 2) DFW androconial patch absent or indistinct; 3) presence of rather prominent ocellus in VFW cell M2, in addition to variable presence of ocellus in cell Cu1; 4) presence of prominent pupil in submarginal ocelli of VFW and VHW; 5) presence of ocher area distal to VFW and VHW submarginal band. Remarks. Zacca et al. (2017) illustrated high intraspecific variation in several Godartiana species, especially in apparent association with seasonally varying precipitation. Godartiana astronesthes n. sp. has only been sampled in June (all known specimens were collected from 14–19 June 1992, except for a single specimen from 25 June 1987), which is the driest month of the year at the type locality (Cañas and Waylen 2012). Given the absence of sampled specimens from wetter months of the year, it is impossible to assess whether seasonally induced phenotypic variation exits in this species, and if such variation is found it may well influence the diagnostic characters provided above.
