Definition and diagnosis.
Phylogenetic analysis of specimens from
Ecuador
identified as
Oligoria lucifer
(Hübner, [1831])
(
type
locality in
Suriname
) reveals that they are not monophyletic with it and instead are sister to both
Oligoria maculata
(W. H. Edwards, 1865)
(
type
locality in
USA
:
Louisiana
) and
Oligoria percosius
(Godman, 1900)
(
type
locality in
Mexico
,
Guatemala
, and
Panama
), being genetically differentiated from them (
Fig. 4
): e.g., COI barcodes of Ecuadorian specimens differ from
O. maculata
and
O. percosius
by 5.3% (35bp) and 4.6% (30 bp), respectively, and therefore they represent a new species. This new species keys to “
Decinea lucifer
” (L.11.8) in
Evans (1955)
but differs from its relatives by a small spot and reduced pale overscaling around it in ventral forewing cell CuA
2
-1A+2A. Due to the cryptic nature of this species, most reliable identification is achieved by DNA and a combination of the following base pairs is diagnostic in the nuclear genome: aly3446.8.5:C48T, aly3446.8.5:T87C, aly127.87.2:C51T, aly127.87.2:G75A, aly903.2.14:T860C, and COI barcode: A166G, T277A, T530C, T553A, A628T.
