Ochrotrichia paraldama Bueno-Soria

Fig. 31

We had some difficulty in identifying this species. In the original drawings in Bueno-Soria (2009), the tenth tergum appears to have the left side process overlapping the right side process, but in the specimens we have seen, the left side overlaps the right. As well, the left process terminates in an acute spine, which is adjacent to a clump of dense setae.

Material examined. Panama, Bocas del Toro Province, Quebrada Rambala, near Rambala Jungle Lodge , 3.74 km SSE Rambala , 8.91627°N and 82.15469°W, 120 m, Malaise trap, February 6–12, 2017, E. Carlson, 1 male.
