from Costa Rica are included in this species concept based on the shape of female tergite X, though in one specimen (SM0694452), the tergite is distinctly more elongate (Fig. 26F), antennomere X is not paler than the preceding segments, the pronotum-to-head width ratio is slightly greater, and the elytra are slightly longer. This specimen was also collected at a much higher elevation (1550 m) than the other specimens including the holotype (50-620 m) and from a locality on the Pacific slope of the continental divide in Costa Rica.
