The apterous pronotum in R. medinae sp. nov. is unique among Neotropical Rhagovelia, being longer than the dorsal eye length, partially covering the mesonotum, with the lateral margins diverging posteriorly and the posterior margin slightly convex, also bearing a straight, transverse sulcus on the posterior region, giving the impression of a double posterior margin (Fig. 1E). However, the assignment to the hambletoni group can be made based on the forewing bearing only three closed cells, all of which are contained within the proximal half of the wing (Fig. 1G). It differs from all other species of the group, as well as from the rest of the angustipes complex, by the pair of projections bearing tufts of brown setae located anteriorly on male abdominal sternum VII (Fig. 1F). This new species is superficially similar to R. barbacoensis Padilla-Gil, 2015 in the yellow coloration of all coxae and fore and hind trochanters, the middle trochanter brown to black, and male abdominal mediotergite VII and tergum VIII centrally with a shiny black area each. However, the two can be readily distinguished because R. medinae sp. nov. has two rows of spines in the apical half of the hind femur, while R. barbacoensis has a single row. Additionally, this new species can be diagnosed by the combination of: body length, apterous male (~3.15) / apterous female (~3.50) / macropterous male (~3.50) / macropterous female (~3.50); general color brown to black; male hind tibia with obtuse spinules throughout posterior surface plus a straight apical spur; male paramere as in Fig. 3C; posterolateral angles of female abdominal laterotergite VII sinuous and parallel; and female abdominal tergum VIII rounded.</p> <p>Etymology. This species is named in honor of Dr. Claudia Medina (Instituto Alexander von Humboldt, Villa de Leyva, Colombia), who has made innumerable contributions to the field of entomology in Colombia and has mentored many women in science.</p> <p>Distribution.

Syn. nov.</p> <p>Comments. The structural characteristics of the apterous females of R. azulita are compatible with R. cauca, including the middle tibia strongly concave and flattened ventrally at the base (Fig. 4B), the shape of the abdominal laterotergites, and abdominal mediotergite VII with a dense fringe of long black bristles on the posterior margin (Fig. 4A). In addition, males have black denticles on the proepisternum near the labium, and the paramere examined on the type series is identical to that of R. cauca, differing from the illustration provided by Padilla-Gil (2009a). The only marked difference between these two species is the dark general coloration of R. azulita with contrasting lightercolored areas on the anterior lobe of the pronotum and the lateral margins of the abdominal laterotergites, whereas R. cauca usually has a lighter and more uniform general coloration. However, as Polhemus (1997) mentioned, the populations of R. cauca from Ecuador tend to be much darker than those from Colombia. This probably also occurs in populations from Huila Department, in southern Colombia and close to Ecuador, where the types of R. azulita have been collected. Therefore, R. azulita is here considered a junior synonym of R. cauca.</p> <p>The type specimens of R. huila are identical to those of R. azulita and they have been collected in the same municipality in Huila. The same comments mentioned above for R. azulita are valid for R. huila, which we also consider a junior synonym of R. cauca, differing from other Colombian populations only by the darker coloration. The original description of R. huila presents several inconsistencies in relation to the type specimens; for example, the male has black denticles on the proepisternun, which are lacking in the original description, and bears two rows of spines on the hind tibia, whereas only one is mentioned by Padilla-Gil (2009a). The type specimens of R. oporapa are also conspecific with R. cauca, based on the same reasons mentioned for R. azulita and R. huila. The types of R. oporapa are even darker than those of R. azulita and R. huila, with an almost uniformly dark coloration and very small contrasting areas on the abdominal laterotergites. Additionally, some of the paratypes of R. oporapa were collected at the same locality and on the same date as those of R. huila.</p> <p>The type material of R. quilichaensis has all typical characteristics of R. cauca, including the orange general coloration with yellow areas on the pronotum and the abdominal laterotergites that do not contrast strongly with the rest of the body. The shape of the paramere is as illustrated by Polhemus (1997) for R. cauca, and not the complex figure drawn by Padilla-Gil (2011a: 35, fig. 2). Consequently, we also consider R. quilichaensis a junior synonym of R. cauca. Finally, we present a table comparing the measurements presented in the original descriptions of the species herein synonymized and the values that we obtained from the type specimens examined, showing that they differ considerably (Table 2).</p> <p>Distribution.

Syn. nov.</p> <p>Remarks. After examining the type material of R. pediformis, we found that the body color and structural characteristics (Figs. 4 C-E) are within the range of variation observed for R. elegans in material from different localities and reported in numerous publications (Moreira &amp; Ribeiro 2009; Moreira et al. 2010, 2012, 2015, 2016; Moreira &amp; Campos 2012; Dias-Silva et al., 2013; Cordeiro &amp; Moreira, 2015; Moreno et al. 2018; Giehl et al. 2020). The measurements presented in the description of R. pediformis are considerably larger than those observed on the type specimens. Padilla-Gil (2010a) reported a body length of 5.70 mm for the male, when in reality it measures approximately 4.50 mm, and 5.60 mm for the female, when it is actually approximately 4.20 mm long (Table 2). The apex of the male proctiger is not as wide as that presented by Padilla-Gil (2010a: 294, fig. 3), and is very similar to that presented by Polhemus (1997: 127, fig. 106) for R. elegans. Furthermore, the paramere is almost identical to the one presented by Bacon (1956) for R. elegans. Finally, Polhemus (1997) had commented on the intraspecific variation of R. elegans, stating that widely separated populations had been described as distinct species by different authors, but with no consistent differences among them. This led him to treat R. costalimai Drake, 1948, R. insularis Champion, 1898, and R. trinidalis Drake, 1948 as synonyms of R. elegans. Accordingly, we consider R. pediformis to also be a synonym of the last species. Rhagovelia gorgona Manzano, Nieser &amp; Caicedo, 1995 is yet another synonym of R. elegans, as determined by Padilla-Gil &amp; Moreira (2013).</p> <p>Distribution. BRAZIL (Gould 1931).

Pronotum without elevated posterior projection. All specimens with mutilated wings (Fig. 2F).</p> <p>Comments. Rhagovelia utria sp. nov. is part of the hirtipes group of species, based on the pronotum of the apterous form completely covering the mesonotum, the pronotum of the macropterous female without a posterior elevated projection, the abdomen of the apterous female with a median carina dorsally on mediotergites I–V, and the posterolateral margins of male abdominal segment VII surrounding the genital cavity lacking black denticles (Polhemus 1997). So far, 12 species are included in the hirtipes group, which has a disjunct distribution from Mexico to Colombia, and also in southeastern Brazil. The only species of the group heretofore recorded from Colombia is R. femoralis Champion, 1898, which can be distinguished from R. utria sp. nov. by the male hind tibia slightly arcuate on the basal two-thirds, with a large preapical spine; the male abdomen without a median carina dorsally; the female abdominal laterotergites lacking a mesally bowed and glabrous area adjacent to mediotergites III–V; and the male abdominal segment VIII with a low median carina ventrally (Bacon 1956, Polhemus 1997). In R. utria sp. nov., the male hind tibia is cylindrical and lacks a large preapical spine; the male abdomen has a median carina on mediotergites I–VI; the female laterotergites III–IV are mesally bowed; and the ventral carina of the male abdominal segment VIII is stronger than on anterior segments.</p> <p>Two other species of the group occur close to Colombia: R. chiriqui Polhemus, 1997, in Panama, and R. reclusa Polhemus, 1997, in Costa Rica. Rhagovelia chiriqui can be distinguished from R. utria sp. nov. by the goldenbrown bowed portion of the female laterotergites adjacent to mediotergites III–V and by the shape of the paramere (Polhemus 1997: fig. 93). Rhagovelia reclusa differs from the new species by the margins of female abdominal laterotergites adjoining the mediotergites V–VII flat and covered by numerous black setae, and the male hind trochanter with seven black pegs (Polhemus 1997). In R. utria sp. nov., the male hind trochanter has about 10 black pegs and two longer spines, the lateral portion of the female laterotergites are concolorous brown throughout the abdomen, the female abdominal laterotergites adjoining the mediotergites V–VII are expanded, and the paramere is shaped as in Fig. 3D.</p> <p>Etymology. This new species is named in honor of Utria Natural National Park, Chocó, Colombia.</p> <p>Distribution. Colombia: Chocó (this work) (Fig. 5).</p> <p>Type material examined.

Syn. nov.</p> <p>Remarks. So far, R. gaigei was known only from the type series and the material examined by Polhemus (1997). Possibly due to this reason, this species was not used for comparison when R. victoria was described by Padilla-Gil (2012). Examination of topotypical and type material of both species showed that R. victoria is a junior synonym of R. gaigei. Padilla-Gil (2012) included R. victoria in the robusta group because most of its characters agreed with this group, although it did not fit into it entirely, especially regarding the paramere shape. Rhagovelia victoria possesses all diagnostic features of R. gaigei, including the paramere (Padilla-Gil 2012: fig. 14), which has essentially the same shape as that of R. gaigei figured in Polhemus (1997: 365, fig. 389). Additionally, in both species, the male hind trochanter has several small spines, the hind femur displays a basal row of minute spines and two parallel rows of spines on apical 3/5 decreasing in size distally, the hind tibia bears small spines throughout its length and a straight apical spur, and the posterolateral margins of male abdominal segment VII surrounding the genital cavity lack black denticles. Finally, R. victoria was described from the same Colombian region where the types of R. gaigei were collected (Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Magdalena).</p> <p>Distribution.
