Dasymutilla naranjo Manley & Pitts 2007: 73 View Cited Treatment . Holotype, ♂, Costa Rica, Guanacaste ( EMUS, examined).

Diagnosis. MALE. This species can be recognized by the combination of the hypopygium, which has a welldefined longitudinal medial carina and the T2 markings, which consist of four coalescent yellow spots that cover most of the segment. Additionally, the genitalia have the cuspis nearly 0.8x the free paramere length and the digitus sigmoidal and nearly 0.5x the free paramere length. Finally, there is an anteriorly situated longitudinal seta-filled pit on S2.

FEMALE. Unknown.

Distribution. Mexico (Veracruz) to Costa Rica ( Manley & Pitts, 2007).

Material examined. Type material. Holotype, ♂, COSTA RICA, Guanacaste , 3 km SE Rio Naranjo , 1- 5.VI.1992, F.D. Parker ( EMUS) . Paratypes, COSTA RICA: Alajuela, Bijagua , VI.1990, F.D. Parker (1♂, EMUS) ; 20 km S Ulapa , 22-31.V.1990 (1♂, EMUS) ; Guanacaste , 3 km SE Rio Naranjo , various dates, F.D. Parker (17♂, EMUS) . Other material. COSTA RICA: Guanacaste , EJN, 14 km S Canas, 12.II-16.III.1991, F.D. Parker (1♂, FSCA) .

Remarks. This species common in Central America, ranging from Veracruz in Mexico to Costa Rica. The hypopygium structure suggests that this is the sister species to, and a potential synonym of, D. relata .
