groups with other members of the Raptor Complex in all analyses with high support. Only one specimen could be acquired for use in our analyses, so differences in COI sequence across specimens could not be investigated, but this single specimen was greater than 4% different in COI sequence from sister species. Furthermore, this species is known from only a single female, so morphological variation could not be investigated. However, this specimen was different enough in terms of morphology and sequence to warrant a separate description. We place this species within the Raptor Identification group based upon similarity with those species.
