Revision of Belvosia Robineau-Desvoidy (Diptera, Tachinidae) and 33 new species from Area de Conservación Guanacaste in northwestern Costa Rica with a key to known North and Mesoamerican species
This revision is part of a continuing series of taxonomic work aimed at the description of new taxa and the redescription of known taxa of the Tachinidae of Area de Conservación Guanacaste in northwestern Costa Rica. Here we describe 33 new species in the genusBelvosiaRobineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (Diptera: Tachinidae). All species described here were reared from this ongoing inventory of wild-caught caterpillars spanning a variety of families (Lepidoptera: Erebidae, Eupterotidae, Noctuidae, Notodontidae, Saturniidae, and Sphingidae). We provide a morphological description of each species with limited information on life history, molecular data, and photographic documentation. In addition to the new species, the authors provide a redescription of the genusBelvosia, as well as provide a key to the identification of the species present in the Meso- and North-American fauna.The following 33 new species ofBelvosiaRobineau-Desvoidy, 1830, all authored by Fleming & Woodley, are described:Belvosia adrianguadamuziFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia anacarballoaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia angelhernandeziFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia brigittevilchezaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia alixtomoragaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia carolinacanoaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia ciriloumanaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia diniamartinezaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia duniagarciaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia duvalierbricenoiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia eldaarayaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia eliethcantillanoaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia freddyquesadaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia gloriasihezaraeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia guillermopereiraiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia harryramireziFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia hazelcambroneroaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia jorgehernandeziFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia josecorteziFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia josepereziFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia keinoraragoniFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia luciariosaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia manuelpereiraiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia manuelriosiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia minorcarmonaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia osvaldoespinozaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia pabloumanaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia petronariosaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia ricardocaleroiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia robertoespinozaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia rostermoragaiFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia ruthfrancoaeFleming & Woodleysp. n.,Belvosia sergioriosiFleming & Woodleysp. n.Belvosia canalisAldrich, 1928 is reared and recorded from the inventory; new information relative to host is provided and the species is rediscribed.The following are proposed by Fleming & Woodley as new synonyms ofBelvosiaRobineau-Desvoidy, 1830:BrachybelvosiaTownsend, 1927syn. n.,BelvosiomimopsTownsend, 1935syn. n.The following three new combinations are proposed as a result of the new synonymies:Belvosia brasilensis(Townsend, 1927),comb. n.; andBelvosia barbiellinii(Townsend, 1935),comb. n.The authors also propose the following new synonymies:Belvosia brasilensis(Townsend, 1927) =Belvosia aurulenta(Bigot, 1888),syn. n.;Belvosia pollinosaRowe, 1933 =Belvosia borealisAldrich, 1928syn. n.;Belvosia weyenberghiana(Wulp, 1883) =Belvosia fuliginosa(Walker, 1853)syn. n.;Belvosia brasiliensisTownsend, 1927 =Belvosia fuliginosa(Walker, 1853)syn. n.;Belvosia luteolaCoquillett, 1900 =Belvosia ochriventris(Wulp, 1890)syn. n.;Belvosia socia(Walker, 1853) =Belvosia proxima(Walker, 1853)syn. n.;Belvosia chrysopyga(Bigot, 1887) =Belvosia unifasciata(Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830)syn. n.;Belvosia chrysopygata(Bigot, 1888) =Belvosia unifasciata(Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830)syn. n.
