Name
Oenomaus cortica (D’Abrera) – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Distribution, habitat, and remarks
This species occurs in wet lowland forest and is recorded from Panama, Guyana, Peru, and Brazil (PA, AM). Oenomaus cortica, Oenomaus gaia, and Oenomaus ambiguus have very similar wing patterns, but their genitalic structures are distinct.
New material examined
Panama.– 1♂: Gatún, C. Z., 2.V.1970, G.B. Small leg., Genitalia 1992: 13♂ R.K. Robbins (USNM). Guyana.– 1♂: Potaro Riv., VIII-IX.1902, C.B. Roberts, Genitalia 1992: 74♂ R.K. Robbins (FSMC). Peru.– 1♂: MD, Parque Manu, Pakitza 340 m, 11°55'48"S, 71°15'18"W, 14.X.1991, Leg. R. Robbins, Genitalia No. 1996: 3♂ R.K. Robbins (USNM ENT 00180044).
Intraspecific variation
The male from Panama has the posterior edge of its 8th tergum more deeply incised than in others.
Female
Unknown. A female paratype of Oenomaus cortica from Espírito Santo, Brazil was illustrated in D’Abrera (1995)[1], but no definitive evidence was presented to support this identification.
COI DNA sequence
Two males from Brazil, Pará have been sequenced (CF-LYC-051 and CF-LYC-052) and show 0.6% divergence.
