5812A6491328FFB492ADD8230B23FD42.taxon	discussion	Comments: Within Alujamyia, the new species appears to be more closely related to the other Mesoamerican species, A. bella and A. sexvittata. They share the following synapomorphies (character numbers following Norrbom (2006 )): 40.2 (subbasal band present from crossvein h to apex of cell cua), 44 (discal band shifted basally, touching crossvein bm – m), 47 (discal and subapical bands mostly orange with brown margins), 49 (subapical band not parallel to crossvein dm – m, anteriorly curved or angled more proximally), and 53.4 (abdomen yellow, with paired sublateral brown spots on tergites 3 – 5, female tergite 6 yellow). The presence of the distal part of the posterior apical wing band (52.1), the plesiomorphic state, suggests that A. octopuncta may be the sister group to the other two species, in which this band is reduced. The isolated anterior apical band may be another synapomorphy for A. bella + A. sexvittata. It is complete and connected to the subapical band in A. octopuncta.	en	Norrbom, Allen L., Steck, Gary J., Rodriguez, Erick J., Sutton, Bruce D., Nolazco, Norma, Keil, Clifford, Padilla, Anabel, Clavijo, Pedro Alexander Rodriguez, O., P.

5812A649132CFFBB9251DE3B091AF9F8.taxon	discussion	Comments: This species is perhaps most closely related to M. plumosa Norrbom and M. erwini Norrbom. These species have the arista long plumose, although not as long in M. carmenae as in the other two species (apomorphic), scutum with postsutural lateral margin narrowly microtrichose (plesiomorphic), dorsocentral seta aligned with or slightly anterior or posterior to intra-alar seta (plesiomorphic), the discal and subapical bands broadly connected posteriorly, at least in M. plumosa (polarity uncertain; M. erwini has a highly derived wing pattern), and a V-shaped mark at least sometimes present on syntergite 1 + 2 (apomorphic). Both M. carmenae and M. erwini have an anteromedial brown spot on the frons (apomorphic), which would support their closer relationship to the other species of Molynocoelia, unless the absence of the spot in M. plumosa is due to reversal.	en	Norrbom, Allen L., Steck, Gary J., Rodriguez, Erick J., Sutton, Bruce D., Nolazco, Norma, Keil, Clifford, Padilla, Anabel, Clavijo, Pedro Alexander Rodriguez, O., P.

5812A6491321FFB992A0D9340902FDCA.taxon	discussion	Comments: The additional specimens vary slightly from the holotype. The brown markings on the vertex sometimes comprise two spots that are separated from the ocellar tubercle, rather than forming a U-shaped mark. The postsutural lateral brown vitta on the scutum is sometimes interrupted or incomplete, ending at the postsutural supra-alar seta. On the female forefemur the ventral row of setae are not stout or spinelike, and the female midfemur lacks the posteroventral row of small, stout, spinelike setae. These characters are sexually dimorphic.	en	Norrbom, Allen L., Steck, Gary J., Rodriguez, Erick J., Sutton, Bruce D., Nolazco, Norma, Keil, Clifford, Padilla, Anabel, Clavijo, Pedro Alexander Rodriguez, O., P.

The postsutural scutal vittae are sometimes smaller, narrower, or absent. The subcostal and discal bands at least have extensions or are sometimes connected along vein M 4 (Fig. 12). The connection of the rm and subapical bands along the costal margin is occasionally broader, extending as far as vein R 2 + 3, rarely with a hyaline spot within the connection. Female tergite 6 often has a pair of irregular, pale to moderate brown, submedial vittae, sometimes extending onto the posterior part of tergite 5.	en	Norrbom, Allen L., Steck, Gary J., Rodriguez, Erick J., Sutton, Bruce D., Nolazco, Norma, Keil, Clifford, Padilla, Anabel, Clavijo, Pedro Alexander Rodriguez, O., P.
