Length of body: male 23.99 (22.7–25.9), female 21.01 (18.6–22.4); length of fore wing: male 32.54 (31.0–34.4), female 31.46 (30.0–33.0); width of fore wing: male 10.36 (9.6–10.8), female 9.49 (9.0–9.9); length of head: male 2.87 (2.6–3.1), female 2.87 (2.6–3.1); width of head including eyes: male 6.22 (5.9–6.4), female 6.13 (5.7–6.5); width of pronotum including suprahumeral plates: male 9.14 (8.6–9.8), female 8.73 (7.9–9.4); width of mesonotum: male 7.09 (6.7–7.7), female 6.81 (6.3–7.6).   Diagnosis.  Procollina mesomaculata  n. sp.can be distinguished from  P. biolleyi,  P. obesa,  P. ustulata  n. sp.and  P. webbi  n. sp.by the bronzing of the fore wing in these species. Similarly,  P. guatemalensis  n. sp.,  P. mayaensis  n. sp.and  P. ulnamaculata  n. sp.can be distinguished by the spots in the fore wing ulnar cells 2 and 3 not found in this new species.  Procollina parva  n. sp.can be distinguished by its head being as wide or wider than the mesonotum and  P. minima  n. sp.can be distinguished by its small body size and radiomedial crossvein being highly angled with respect to the radial crossvein. The distal fore wing medial veins lack a spot of infuscation between the proximal vein divergence and the distal L-shaped infuscation in  P. hondurensis  n. sp.,  P. medea(Stål, 1864),  P. nicaraguaensis  n. sp.,  P. nigrapilosa  n. sp., and  P. queretaroensis. The hind wing margin is infuscated in  P. nuevoleonensis  n. sp.and  P. tamaulipasensis  n. sp.but is only infuscated on the distal edge in this new species and the base of hind wing apical cell 4 is infuscated in  P. nuevoleonensis  n. sp.and  P. tamaulipasensis  n. sp.The species is very similar to  P. convexa  n. sp.in general appearance but the species differ in the upper pygofer lobe is pointed in  P. convexa  n. sp.but curved to the terminus in  P. mesomaculata  n. sp., the median uncus lobe is semicircular in  P. convexa  n. sp.but triangular in  P. mesomaculata  n. sp., the long extension of the lateral uncus lobes is about 1.5 times the length of the short extension and the lateral sides are smoothly curved to the apex in  P. convexa  n. sp.while the lobes are 2 times as long as the short extension and the lateral sides have a parallel base angled about midway before curving to the apex in  P. mesomaculata  n. sp., the fore wing infuscation extends beyond the mediocubital crossvein to median vein 3 and does not terminate at the mediocubital crossvein in  P. convexa  n. sp.as it does in  P. mesomaculata  n. sp., the mark on the distal radius anterior 2 does not extend to the fore wing apex in  P. convexa  n. sp.but it does in  P. mesomaculata  n. sp., the male operculum has a transverse posterior margin in  P. convexa  n. sp.but is curved in  P. mesomaculata  n. sp.   Distribution.The species is known only from the typeseries collected in  Guatemalaand Hondurasand is often found with  P. convexa  n. sp. 1830866885 Guatemala Finca Firmeza Dept.
