Other material.

A specimen registered in BOLD (NHM749343) from Belize shares the same BIN and is likely conspecific. It was not examined and is not part of the type series.

Etymology.

Chelonus jeremydewaardi is named to honor Dr. Jeremy deWaard for his many years laboring in execution and administration of the field and laboratory actions performed by the Centre for Biodiversity Genomics to rapidly and accurately DNA barcode tens of thousands of Costa Rican insects.
