BIN (holotype): BOLD:ABZ0453.

Diagnosis

Callipia wojtusiaki sp. nov. can reliably be separated from the subspecies C. septentrionalis subsp. nov . and from C. milleri sp. nov. by the geographical distribution and DNA barcoding only. The uncus of C.milleri sp. nov. tends to be narrower than in the more spatula-shaped uncus of C. wojtusiaki sp. nov. COI-barcode: the minimum observed distance to the subspecies C. septentrionalis subsp. nov . is 0.8%, and the minimum observed distance to C.milleri sp. nov. is 1.7%.

Etymology

The species is named in honour of Janusz Wojtusiak (deceased), Krakow, Poland.

Paratypes ECUADOR: 1 ♂, with same data as for holotype, but montane rainforest, 3.973° S, 79.075° W, 1973 m, 11 Mar. 2002 (PMJ) (C-0047 / ID 25729 with GS-113, COI sequence 589 bp, BIN); 1 ♂, same data as previous, but disturbed area, 1800 m, 3.972° S, 79.079° W, 1810 m, 4 Feb. 2013, L. Möckel leg. (RCGB) (ID 48462); 2 ♂♂, Loja surroundings, 1890 [sampling year] (USNM) (C-0019, COI sequence 658 bp (6 bp gap); C-0357), these two specimens are also syntypes of intermedia stat. rev., but are not conspecific with the lectotype of intermedia stat. rev. from Peru (see C.intermedia stat. rev.); 1 ♂, Morona-Santiago, Limon-Gualaceo Road, east, 3.024° S, 78.585° W, 2450 m, 20 Aug. 2003, R. Garlacz leg. (ZMUJ) (C-0034; COI sequence 658 bp, BIN); 5 ♂♂, with same data, but 3.024° S, 78.585° W, 2200 m, 30 Aug. 2003, J. Wojtusiak leg. (ZMUJ) (C-0035–0037; 0041; 0043; COI sequences 616–658 bp, all with BIN); 1 ♀, with same data (C-0040, figs. 97, 127); 2 ♂♂, Morona-Santiago, Rio Culebrillas, 34 km SE of Gualaceo, 3.133° S, 78.55° W, 2200 m, 22–23 Oct. 1987, Jan Hillman leg. (CMNH) (C-0 0 14, COI sequence 658 bp, BIN; C-0354).

PERU: 1 ♂, Amazonas, Route Moyobamba à Jaén, km 77, [5.683° S, 77.717° W], 2000 m, 23 Sep. 2003, A. Lévêque leg. (MNHN) (C-0017 with GS-318, COI sequence 658 bp, BIN).

Distribution

Eastern Andes of southern Ecuador and northern Peru: 1800–2600 m. It seems that C. wojtusiaki sp. nov. does not occur sympatrically with the subspecies septentrionalis subsp. nov . , or with milleri sp. nov. or sihvoneni sp. nov.
