Diagnosis.
Leucotrichia chiriquiensis
is most similar to
L. botosaneanui
,
L. hispida
, and
L. viridis
, based on a similar appearance of the phallus, as discussed under
L. botosaneanui
. This species can most swiftly be identified as distinct from the others based on the structural modifications of the antennae and head.
