Diagnosis
The extent of dark brown colour is larger than in
C.
fulvida
, see diagnosis in this species.
Callipia levequei
sp. nov.
has a considerably more intense ground colour than
flagrans
.
Callipia
flagrans
and
C. jonai
sp. nov.
are very similar and can most reliably be distinguished by DNA-barcoding. The ground colour in
C.flagrans
is more yellow than in
C. jonai
sp. nov.
, and the species appear to be geographically separated (
C.
flagrans
in
Peru
,
C. jonai
sp. nov.
in
Bolivia
). COI-barcode: the minimum observed distance to the genetically most similar (but not similar looking) species (
C. augustae
sp. nov.
) is 2.6%.
