PROC. ENTOMOL. SOC. WASH. 111(1), 2009, pp. 183 198 REVIEW OF THE NEW WORLD SPECIES OF COIBA MARSH (HYMENOPTERA: BRACONIDAE: DORYCTINAE), INCLUDING DESCRIPTIONS OF TWO NEW SPECIES, NEW DISTRIBUTION RECORDS, AND A KEY TO SPECIES ROBERT R. KULA Systematic Entomology Laboratory, PSI, Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, c /o National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, P.O. Box 37012, MRC-168, Washington, DC 20013-7012 U.S.A. (e-mail: Robert.Kula@ars.usda.gov) Abstract. Coiba jeffersoni Kula, new species from the Nearctic Region and Coiba marshi Kula, new species from the Neotropical Region are described. A diagnosis is provided for both species, as is a key to the New World species of Coiba. Coiba jeffersoni likely attacks wood-boring beetle larvae, as label data indicate that specimens were reared from Carya ovata (Mill.) K. Koch (shagbark hickory), Juglans nigra L. (black walnut), and an undetermined species of Quercus L. (oak). The first records of Coiba dentatus Marsh in Brazil and Coiba woldai Marsh in Venezuela are reported. Key Words: parasitoid, description, distribution, new record, Carya ovata, Juglans nigra, Quercus Marsh (1993) proposed Coiba Marsh to include doryctines with short antennae (i.e.,,18 flagellomeres in Marsh 1997), forewing r-m absent, forewing first subdiscal cell open posterodistally, hind wing cu-a present, and hind wing M+CU longer than 1M. Coiba contained three Neotropical species prior to this work, all with unknown host utilization: Coiba dentatus Marsh and Coiba woldai Marsh, both from Costa Rica and Panama, and Coiba guanaensis Marsh from the British Virgin Islands (Marsh 1993, 2002). Marsh (1997) provided a key to New World genera of Doryctinae that includes Coiba; Rahman et al. (1998) studied ovipositor morphology for C. woldai. Marsh (2002) provided a key to the doryctine genera of Costa * Accepted by David R. Smith Rica that includes Coiba, a revised generic diagnosis, redescriptions and new distribution records for C. dentatus and C. woldai, and a key for differentiating the aforementioned species. Marsh (1993) mentioned that specimens from the southern United States, Mexico and Brazil may belong in [Coiba] but did not describe them because of a paucity of specimens. An undescribed species of Coiba was collected recently at Konza Prairie Biological Station, a tallgrass prairie preserve in the Flint Hills region of Kansas. Additional specimens of this species were discovered in the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History (USNM); specimens of another undescribed species were discovered in the Canadian National Collection of Insects (CNC). Both new species are described herein, new distri-

184 PROCEEDINGS OF THE ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF WASHINGTON bution records for C. dentatus and C. woldai are reported, and a key to the New World species of Coiba is provided. MATERIALS AND METHODS Specimens used in this study are either housed in the USNM or were borrowed from the CNC and the Kansas State University Museum of Entomological Prairie Arthropod Research (KSUC). The holotypes of C. dentatus (CNC), C. guanaensis (USNM), and C. woldai (CNC) were examined, as were nine of 11, two of two, and 88 of 99 paratypes for each species, respectively. Additionally, 10 and 85 nontype specimens were examined for C. dentatus and C. woldai, respectively. Specimens were examined using a Leica Wild M10 stereomicroscope with 253 oculars. Measurements were taken with an ocular micrometer as in Wharton (1977) with additions and modifications as in Kula and Zolnerowich (2005) and Kula and Zolnerowich (2008). The following abbreviations are used in the descriptions: head length (HL), head width (HW), temple width (TW), face width (FW), face height (FH), eye length (EL), eye height (EH), flagellomere 1 length (F1L), flagellomere 2 length (F2L), mesosoma length (ML), mesoscutum width (MW), mesosoma height (MH), scutellar sulcus length (SSL), scutellar sulcus width (SSW), median tergite 1 length (T1L), median tergite 1 width (T1W), and median tergites one through eight (t1 t8). Body length was estimated by summing HL, ML, T1L, and gaster length (excluding the exposed portion of the ovipositor) as measured in lateral view. Terminology for morphological features and setation largely follows Sharkey and Wharton (1997). Pronotal collar, pronotal groove, and subalar groove are as in Marsh (2002); posterior mesopleural furrow is as in Kula (2003). Terminology for surface sculpture primarily follows Harris (1979), but Sharkey and Wharton (1997) and Marsh (2002) were also consulted. Crenulate is as in Sharkey and Wharton (1997); carinae and areas of the propodeum are as in Marsh (2002). When a range of intraspecific variation is reported, the most common condition is the first condition mentioned. In the material examined sections, the location of each specimen examined is indicated through the use of museum codens (Evenhuis and Samuelson 2007). Exact label data are used for holotypes and indicated through the use of quotation marks. A bracketed semicolon is used to separate the information on each line of any label associated with the holotype. In an effort to provide consistent and unambiguous specimen-level information, data for specimens other than the holotype are presented in a uniform format based on original label data. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Coiba Marsh (Figs. 1 35) Coiba Marsh 1993: 11, 41 [original description, distribution, key to species, key to genera]; Marsh 1997: 209 [key to genera]; Rahman et al. 1998: 357 [ovipositor morphology]; Marsh (2002): 15, 61 [key to genera, diagnosis, distribution, key to species]. Type species: Coiba woldai Marsh 1993 [by original designation; CNC, examined]. Distribution. Brazil, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama, United States, and Venezuela. Discussion. The northern- and southernmost records of Coiba species are Coiba jeffersoni Kula, new species from West Lafayette, Indiana, U.S.A. and C. dentatus from Encruzilhada, Bahia, Brazil, respectively. The latter locality is a

A specimen of C. woldai in the CNC labeled VENEZUELA [;] Cagua Edo.Aragua [;].I.1974 [;] Malaise trap bears a blue C. woldai paratype label. However, the paratypes section in Marsh (1993) lists specimens from Panama only, and the distribution listed for C. woldai in Marsh (1993, 2002) does not include Venezuela. Further, the paratype label does not match the style of paratype labels for C. dentatus and C. guanaensis, species also described in Marsh (1993). It appears that someone other than Marsh produced and presumably attached paratype labels to the specimen from Venezuela and the paratypes for C. woldai, as the labels are identical for all specimens. Therefore, I believe that the paratype label was attached accidentally to the specimen from Venezuela and do not consider it a paratype. The locality in Venezuela is a new distribution record for C. woldai, previously known only from Costa Rica (Marsh 2002) and Panama (Marsh 1993).

Hind wing vein SC+R is tubular proximally and absent distally, and thus, the basal cell is open anterodistally in both sexes of C. jeffersoni. Hind wing vein SC+R is sexually dimorphic in all other species of Coiba, with SC+R entirely tubular in females but tubular proximally and absent distally in males. The host is unknown for C. jeffersoni, but label data indicate that specimens were reared from branches Carya ovata, twigs of Juglans nigra, and a flake of oak bark. Thus, it seems likely that C. jeffersoni attacks woodboring beetle larvae, as is the case for most doryctines. The specimen from Konza Prairie was collected using a Malaise trap set in a gallery forest along an intermittent stream. Towne (2002) listed Quercus macrocarpa Michx. (bur oak) and Quercus muehlenbergii Engelm. (chinquapin oak) as common and Juglans nigra L. (black walnut) as occasional woodland species at Konza Prairie. Carya ovata (Mill.) K. Koch (shagbark hickory) is not known from Konza Prairie, but Carya cordiformis (Wangenh.) K. Koch (bitternut hickory) is listed as an infrequent woodland species (Towne 2002). Coiba jeffersoni is the first species of Coiba described from the Nearctic Region, although Marsh (1993) mentioned specimens from Mexico and the southern United States. Etymology. This species is named in honor of Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States of America, for his contributions as a politician, architect, and naturalist. Coiba marshi Kula, new species (Figs. 10 18, 32) Diagnosis. The mesoscutum has sharp protrusions anterolaterally in C. marshi and is rounded anterolaterally in C. jeffersoni and C. guanaensis. The propodeal carinae coalesce into a protrusion mesally in C. marshi; the protrusion is absent in C. woldai. The vertex and frons are coriaceous to areolaterugose with the vertex costate-rugose posteromesally in C. marshi; the vertex and frons are strigate in C. dentatus. Coiba marshi can be further differentiated from the aforementioned species using Table 1 and the key provided below. Description. Male. Body length: 2.43 2.70 mm.

Coiba marshi is the most heavily sculptured species of Coiba, particularly the head, mesoscutum, metapleuron, and propodeum. Coiba marshi is also the largest species of Coiba, and the number of flagellomeres is exceptionally high relative to other species. Two specimens have 18 and one has 19 flagellomeres and thus could be misidentified as Caingangia Marsh or Leluthia Cameron using Marsh (1997). However, C. marshi clearly belongs in Coiba, as all specimens have a swollen hind tibia. Additionally, species of Caingangia and Leluthia have a small male hind wing stigma and a semicircular area at the base of t2, respectively. The stigma is large and the semicircular area is absent in C. marshi. Three species of Coiba, C. marshi, C. dentatus, and C. woldai, are now known from South America. Marsh (1993, 2002) mentioned specimens of an undescribed species from Brazil; at least some were probably C. marshi, as Marsh (1993, 2002) examined specimens from the CNC. Etymology. This species is named in honor of Dr. Paul M. Marsh for his contributions to braconid systematics. KEY TO NEW WORLD SPECIES OF COIBA 1.
