We describe a new species of Cordyligaster Macquart (Diptera: Tachinidae) from Area de Conservacion Guanacaste (ACG) in northwestern Costa Rica. Cordyligastercapellii sp. n., is described and photographed. All specimens of C.capellii were reared from Syngamiaflorella (Stoll, 1781) (Lepidoptera, Crambidae, Spilomelinae), a leaf-rolling caterpillar collected in ACG rain forest. By coupling morphology, photographic documentation, life history and molecular data, we provide a clear and concise description of this new species. In addition the authors provide new distribution and host records for C.fuscipennis (Macquart) reared in ACG.
我们描述了一种来自哥斯达黎加西北部瓜纳卡斯特保护区(ACG)的新物种——Cordyligaster Macquart(双翅目:寄蝇科)。对新物种Cordyligaster capellii sp. n.进行了描述并拍摄了照片。所有C. capellii的标本均采自Syngamia florella(斯托尔,1781年)(鳞翅目,草螟科,绢野螟亚科),一种在ACG雨林中采集到的卷叶毛虫。通过结合形态学、图像记录、生活史和分子数据,我们对这个新物种进行了清晰简洁的描述。此外,作者还提供了在ACG饲养的fuscipennis(Macquart)的新分布和寄主记录。
