Corr. 99, Alicante, Spain; jandra28@yahoo.com Edited by Roberto A Zucchi ESALQ/USP Received 10 May 2012 and accepted 14 August 2012 Published online 7 September 2012 Abstract Two new species of Podogaster Brullé, Podogaster brunneus n. sp. and Podogaster lagartensis n. sp., are described. The material was collected with Malaise traps operated for a year in the Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve, a dry tropical area of Southeast Mexico. Podogaster rosteri Gauld & Bradshaw is synonymized with Podogaster mexicanus (Cresson). A key to the Mexican species is also provided. * Sociedade Entomológica do Brasil 2012 Introduction Podogaster Brullé is a monophyletic Neotropical genus of Anomaloninae, characterized by having a transverse flexible suture in front of the scuto-scutellar groove, fore wing with Cu1a and 1m-cu separated basally by a distance of about 0.1 the length of Cu1b or less (sometimes contiguous and rarely basally united), a long antennal pedicel, a long ovipositor, slightly hairy eyes (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997), and specialized male genitalia (Gauld 1976). Reported hosts of Podogaster (all Lepidoptera) are species of Saturniidae: Automeris io (Fabricius), Hylesia lineata Druce (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997), and Hylesia metabus (Cramer) (Hernandez et al 2009), and Pyralidae: Cactoblastis cactorum (Berg) (Cushman 1927) and Hypsipyla grandella (Zeller) (Graf 1983). The genus comprises 26 described species of exclusively Neotropical distribution. There is no complete revision of the species, but a good contribution to the genus was provided by Gauld & Bradshaw (1997), who described 14 new species from Costa Rica and provided a key for 15 reported species. The species Podogaster eldae Gauld & Bradshaw, Podogaster mexicanus (Cresson), Podogaster rosteri Gauld & Bradshaw, Podogaster ruthae Gauld & Bradshaw, Podogaster vitticollis (Cresson) and Podogaster tranae Gauld & Bradshaw have been previously reported from Mexico (Cresson 1874, Cameron 1886, Gauld & Bradshaw 1997, Ruíz-Cancino et al 2002, González-Moreno & Bordera 2011). The aim of this study is to describe and illustrate two new species from Mexico and to provide a new key for the reviewed Mexican species of Podogaster. Material and Methods Part of the material was collected using Malaise traps in the dry forest of the Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve (Reserva de la Biósfera Ría Lagartos), approximately N, W in Northeastern Yucatán. Malaise trap collecting pots were replaced fortnightly from June 2008 to August Specimens of P. eldae and P. ruthae preserved at the Insect Museum of Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas (UAT, Ciudad Victoria, Mexico) were revised. Type material of Podogaster species reported by Gauld & Bradshaw (1997), preserved at the Instituto Nacional de

4 40 González-Moreno & Bordera Biodiversidad (INBio, Santo Domingo de Heredia, Costa Rica), American Entomological Institute (AEIC, Gainesville, Florida, USA), and the Natural History Museum (BMNH, London, UK), as well as the type specimens of Podogaster major Szépligeti, Podogaster medius Szépligeti, Podogaster minor Szépligeti, and Podogaster variegatus Szépligeti kept at the Termeszettudomanyi Muzeum Allattara (TMA, Budapest, Hungary) were studied. Images of the type specimens of P. mexicanus (Cresson) made by Jason Weintraub from the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia (ANSP, Pennsylvania, USA) and P. rosteri Gauld & Bradshaw made by Ronald Zuñiga from INBio (Costa Rica) were examined for comparison. The remaining species have been checked by their original descriptions. Morphological and body surface sculpturing terminology follows Gauld & Bradshaw (1997). Key has been modified also from Gauld & Bradshaw (1997). Layered digital images were made at the University of Turku (Finland), with an Olympus E520 digital camera attached to an Olympus SZX16 stereomicroscope and then combined using Deep Focus 3.1. The SEM images were taken using a Hitachi S-3000N (in low vacuum mode) at the University of Alicante, Spain. The material of new species is deposited in the Colección Entomológica Regional of Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán (CER-UADY, Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico) and in the Colección Entomológica of Universidad de Alicante (CEUA, Alicante, Spain).

González- Moreno leg., Malaise trap, dry mounted. Diagnosis This species can be distinguished from all other known Neotropical species mainly because it is almost entirely yellowish with very few black parts (only the interocellar area and sometimes the occiput). Podogaster lagartensis belongs to the P. vitticollis-species group of Gauld & Bradshaw (1997) as the head in dorsal view has the gena not or only slightly swollen, clearly less than 0.5 times width of eye in lateral view; and fore wing with first abscissa of Cu1a times as long as Cu1 between 1m-cu and cu-a, witha pigmented region resembling a vein extending from lower distal corner of first subdiscal cell to hind margin of wing, apex usually strongly infumate; antenna with 47 to 48 flagellomeres; clypeus slightly produced ventrally and eyes strongly convergent ventrally. P. lagartensis differs from P. eldae and P. vitticollis by having the mesosoma entirely yellowish; and scutellum smooth, shiny and very slightly concave centrally; pronotum laterally smooth and shiny; mesopleuron very slightly striate on upper part, median area at level of speculum smooth and lower part of mesopleuron punctate and striate on anterior margin. P. lagartensis is distinguishable from the closest species P. brunneus in having mesoscutum finely punctate, rugose in notaular area and in the internotaular posterior areas, granulate on median and lateral lobes; mesopleuron finely punctate on lower part; propodeum strongly pubescent, hairs relatively short, not hiding sculpture; pterostigma and veins dark brown in dorsal view, yellowish to light brown ventrally; eyes and ocelli light gray. Description FemaleR Body length (without antennae and ovipositor) mm; fore wing mm (Holotype: body length 12.8 mm; fore wing 6.4 mm).

HabitatR Specimens were collected in a dry forest characterized by trees reaching m in height, 50 75% of which drop their leaves during the dry season, and a shrub and herbaceous layer that develops during the rainy season. Epiphytic plants are abundant (Flores & Espejel 1994). Common species in this dry forest include Acacia pennatula, Caesalpinia gaumeri, Lysiloma latisiliquum, Enterolobium cyclocarpum, Piscidia piscipula and Pithecellobium brownii (Fabaceae), Bursera simaruba (Burseraceae), Guazuma ulmifolia (Sterculiaceae), Vitex gaumeri (Verbenaceae), and Metopium brownei (Anacardiaceae). EtymologyR This species is named after the type locality, Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve. PhenologyR See Fig 24. Podogaster mexicanus (Cresson) (Figs 1 7) Anomalon mexicanum Cresson 1874: 376. Type. Podogaster rosteri Gauld & Bradshaw 1997: 133. Type. Syn. nov. Type material (2 ) As P. mexicanus: lectotype : Mex. [0 Mexico], 68 TYPE No. 832 (Images ANSP). As P. rosteri: holotype (INBio): Costa Rica, Guanacaste Province, Santa Rosa National Park, m, 1984, Janzen leg. Material from Mexico reported by Gauld & Bradshaw (1997) and deposited in BMNH was not found (G. Broad pers. comm.). Diagnosis Head in dorsal view with gena strongly swollen, in lateral view, width of gena at midpoint almost equal to width of eye at this point; fore wing with first abscissa of Cu1a times as long as Cu1 between 1m-cu and cu-a, clypeus strongly produced; eyes weakly convergent ventrally; and body mostly yellowish orange except black marks on ocellar area, frons, occiput, center of the lobes of mesoscutum, an elongate patch on the mesopleuron, anterior lateral margin of propodeum, metapleuron, part of hind coxa, trochanter, and trochantellus. HostsR A multivoltine species reported as P. rosteri, from species of Saturniidae (Lepidoptera) (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997). DistributionR Neotropical. Costa Rica, Mexico (Colima). HabitatR In Costa Rica, specimens were collected in the seasonally dry forest in North-western Guanacaste. PhenologyR September November, January March, and June (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997). RemarksR Podogaster rosteri is conspicuously similar to P. mexicanus by having head in dorsal view with gena strongly swollen; fore wing with first abscissa of Cu1a about half times length of Cu1 between1m-cu and cu-a; clypeus strongly produced ventrally; eyes weakly convergent ventrally; and mostly yellowish orange body (Figs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and7). None relevant morphological and coloration differences have been found, with exception of the size and form of black mark on the mesopleuron of both species (Types). Podogaster mexicanus has mesopleuron mostly black except posterior and dorsal yellow margins (Fig 1), while P. rosteri has a black elongate patch, which is partially separated from black lower half of mesopleuron and sternal region (Fig 5). Nevertheless, according to Gauld and Bradshaw (1997), paratypes of P. rosteri from Mexico have more extensive black on mesopleuron covering all it except for band of yellow along the posterior and dorsal

13 Mexican Species of Podogaster 49 margins and this is as in the lectotype of P. mexicanus. On the other hand, in two paratypes of P. rosteri from Costa Rica preserved in BMNH, this large black mark on the mesopleuron is narrowly divided into two marks (G. Broad pers. comm.). In the absence of other diagnostic characters, we consider these coloration differences as intraspecific variability and consequently P. rosteri becomes a synonym of P. mexicanus. Thus the P. rosteri species group defined by Gauld & Bradshaw (1997) must be renamed to P. mexicanus species group. This species-group comprises now P. mexicanus from Costa Rica and Mexico, and two species from Peru and Brazil, which differ from P. mexicanus by having longer ovipositor and body mostly blackish (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997). Podogaster ruthae Gauld & Bradshaw Podogaster ruthae Gauld & Bradshaw 1997: 149. Holotype. Type Material (1 ) Holotype (INBio): Costa Rica, Cartago Prov., Turrialba, Grano de Oro on Chirripo, 1,120 m, III.1993, Campos leg. Non-type material (1 ) 1 (UAT): Mexico, Tamaulipas, G. Farias, dry forest, XII.1990, E. Ruiz C. leg. DiagnosisR This species differs from other Mexican species by the following combination of characters: gena less than 0.5 times width of eye in lateral view; fore wing with first abscissa of Cu1a times as long as Cu1 between 1mcu and cu-a, and without a pigmented region resembling a vein extending from lower distal corner of first subdiscal cell to hind margin of wing, apex hyaline or very weakly infumate; antenna with 29 to 30 flagellomeres; clypeus slightly produced ventrally; eyes strongly convergent ventrally; posterior apex of propodeum evenly tapered into short sculptured neck; fore wing with 1m-cu and Cu1a basally separated by a short abscissa of Cu1 that at most is about 0.15 of length of Cu1b; tergite I of metasoma with spiracle enlarged, bigger than the spiracle of tergite II, and separated from hind margin of tergite by about the dorsal interspiracular distance; scutellum entirely yellow. RemarksR The specimen from Mexico differs from original description (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997) in having the mesoscutum granulate in median and lateral lobes, being shiny in notaular area, with coarse rugae on smooth background; propodeum mainly yellow, being the black area reduced only to anterior margin; hind coxae reddish brown and dorsally yellow; and a short and very weakly pigmented vein extending from lower distal corner of first subdiscal cell to hind margin of wing. Apart from all these differences, the specimen agrees with all other characters of C. ruthae. Nevertheless we do not exclude the possibility that the specimen could belong to a new species, but the study of new material is needed to solve this question. HostsR Unknown. DistributionR Neotropical. Costa Rica, Mexico (Tamaulipas). HabitatR This species have been collected in a great variety of habitats, from suburban gardens to wet and dry forest and an altitude of 1,300 m (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997). In Mexico, this has been collected in dry forest. PhenologyR In Costa Rica, this species have been collected from March to May (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997). In Mexico, it was collected at December. Podogaster tranae Gauld & Bradshaw Podogaster tranae Gauld & Bradshaw 1997: 151. Holotype. Type material (4 &1 ) Holotype (INBio): Costa Rica, Puntarenas Prov., Golfo Dulce Forest Reserve, 24 kmw Pan American highway on road to Rincon de la Osa, 100 m, VI.1989, Gauld leg.

Yucatán State, Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve, Ría Lagartos Station, Core II, 24.VI 08.VII.2009, A. González-Moreno leg., Malaise trap., dry mounted. Diagnosis This species is very distinctive from all other Mexican species by the following combination of characters: gena less than 0.5 times width of eye in lateral view; fore wing with first abscissa of Cu1a times as long as Cu1 between 1m-cu and cua, and without a pigmented region resembling a vein extending from lower distal corner of first subdiscal cell to hind

14 50 González-Moreno & Bordera margin of wing; antenna with 27 to 29 flagellomeres; clypeus slightly produced ventrally; eyes strongly convergent ventrally; posterior apex of propodeum extended into a slender, unsculptured neck; fore wing 1m-cu and Cu1a arising from a short common stalk; tergite I of metasoma with spiracle small, not larger than the spiracle of tergite II, and separated from hind margin of tergite by about the dorsal interspiracular distace and scutellum yellow with a median longitudinal black line. This species gives name to the P. tranae species group of Gauld & Bradshaw (1997). HostsR Unknown. DistributionR Neotropical. Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico (Yucatán). HabitatR Gauld & Bradshaw (1997) provided abundant biological data on this species in Costa Rica. In Mexico, P. tranae was found in the savannah-type vegetation. For more detailed description of this habitat see González-Moreno & Bordera (2011). PhenologyR In Costa Rica, this species have been collected abundantly from January to April and sporadically from August to December (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997). In Mexico, it was collected only in June and July on the end of dry season (González-Moreno & Bordera 2011). Podogaster vitticollis (Cresson) (Fig 9) Anomalon vitticolle Cresson 1874: 377. Holotype. Non-type material (4 ) Costa Rica: 1 (AEIC): Guanacaste Province, Santa Rosa National Park, 300 m, XII.1977, Janzen leg.; 1 (AEIC): Puntarenas Prov., Corcovado National Park, Estación Sirena, VII.1977, Janzen leg.; 1 (INBio): Manuel Antonio National Park, 80 m, VII.1991, Zuñiga leg; 1 (INBio), Osa Península, Rancho Quemado, III.1991, IX.1992, X.1993, Saborio, Marín & Gutiérrez leg. Material from Mexico reported by Gauld & Bradshaw (1997) as in the BMNH was not found (G. Broad pers. comm.). Diagnosis Head in dorsal view with gena not swollen, less than 0.5 times width of eye in lateral view; fore wing with first abscissa of Cu1a times as long as Cu1 between 1m-cu and cu-a,1mcu and Cu1a basally separated by a very short abscissa of Cu1, with a pigmented region resembling a vein extending from lower distal corner of first subdiscal cell to hind margin of wing; antenna with 37 to 39 flagellomeres; clypeus slightly produced ventrally; eyes strongly convergent ventrally; mesosoma mainly yellow, with black marks on mesoscutum, propodeum and scarcely on mesopleuron; scutellum coarsely rugose, broadly concave centrally; pronotum laterally and mesopleuron longitudinally striate, with only a smooth area just below the speculum. This species gives name to the P. vitticollis species group of Gauld & Bradshaw (1997). HostsR Unknown. DistributionR Neotropical. Costa Rica, Mexico (Veracruz, Tamaulipas). HabitatR All the Costa Rican specimens were collected on the Pacific Coastal plain and in forests on the Pacific side of the Cordillera mostly at altitudes of less than 500 m (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997). PhenologyR Throughout the year (Gauld & Bradshaw 1997).
