Taxonomic review of the genus Osbornellus Ball (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in Central America 2702 Author Domínguez, Edwin Author Godoy, Carolina text Zootaxa 2010 2010-12-03 2702 1 106 journal article 1175­5334 Osbornellus quirosae Domínguez & Godoy , sp. nov. ( Figs. 19a–19e ) Description. Length: 4.9–6.7 mm . Member of the O. auronitens group ( Fig. 1a ). General description as in O. eberhardi . Male genitalia: Pygofer more than twice as long as greatest width, very produced posteriorly, apices narrow and rounded; long macrosetae dispersed along distal third ( Fig. 19a ). Valve triangular and wide. Plates long, pointed at apex and with filamentous setae ( Fig. 19b ). Style with long apophysis, truncate at apex ( Fig. 19c ). Aedeagus in ventral view with basal portion narrow; shaft straight, slender; apex truncate and slightly shorter than ventral processes ( Fig. 19d ). Ventral processes parallel-sided, slightly separated for most of length, apices narrow and pointed. In lateral view shaft slender, curved dorsad, almost the same length as ventral processes; dorsal projection very stout, expanded to blunt tip. Gonopore apical. Ventral processes tapered, apices pointed, directed dorsad ( Fig. 19e ). Diagnosis. Very similar to O. bifurcatus in appearance, but in ventral view the aedeagus of O . quirosae has the ventral processes straight, partially covering the shaft; in lateral view the ventral processes of O. quirosae are curved and separated. In O. bifurcatus the ventral processes in ventral view are more curved and do not cover the shaft; in lateral view the ventral processes are separated from the shaft. Distribution. Known only from Costa Rica ; 200–2600 m . Etymology. This species is named in honor of Dora Quirós in recognition of her loan of specimens and support given to the first author while beginning his Masters studies.
