Amaxia alejandraloriae ESPINOZA, 2017

Costa Rica
  • Original description
  • Type locality: Costa Rica, Alajuela, Estacion Quica, 487m
    Although this is the closest species to A. osmophora, in terms of its adult wing pattern and genitalia, A. alejandraloriae can be distinguished by having a less dense patch of bristles on the tip of the valvae, a U-shaped saccus and the vesica with a reduced patch of scobinate cornuti, compared with that of A. osmophora.
