Abstract

BACKGROUND: We describe two new species in the genus Erythromelana Townsend, 1919 from Area de Conservación Guanacaste (ACG) in northwestern Costa Rica. Both species were reared from wild-caughtcaterpillars of Eois spp. (Lepidoptera: Geometridae). We provide a concise description of each species using morphology, life history, molecular data, and photographic documentation.

NEW INFORMATION: Erythromelana jimmychevezi Fleming & Wood sp. nov. Erythromelana glenriverai Fleming & Wood sp. nov.

Keywords: ACG; Blondeliini; Exoristinae; caterpillars; cloud forest; host-specificity; parasitoid flies; tropical dry forest; tropical rain forest
