Psychodopygus corossoniensis (LePont & Pajot, 1978) View in CoL , series guyanensis

( Figures 17–20 View FIGURES 16 – 20 )

Lutzomyia (Psychodopygus) corossoniensis Le Pont & Pajot, 1978: 224 View in CoL (♂). Type locality: French Guiana, near Corossony. Additional references: Murillo & Zeledón, 1985: 64 ( Costa Rica record); Young & Duncan, 1994: 571 (references, taxonomy, distribution).

Lutzomyia guyanensis (Floch & Abonnenc, 1941) View in CoL , in part: Young, 1979: 186 ( Panama record).

Psychodopygus corossoniensis (LePont & Pajot) : Le Pont & Desjeux, 1982: 281 (cf. to dorlinsis ); Biancardi et al., 1982: 168 ( Brazil); Ryan, 1986: 123 (♂, ♀, Brazil); Galati, 2003: 45, 120, 122 (list, keys).

Diagnosis. Male: paramere simple but curved, directed to gonocoxite, with apex sligthly dilatated; lateral lobe shortest tan gonocoxite; gonostylus with one large terminal spiniform seta and 3 shorter preapical setae. Female: cibarium with 4 horizontal teeth, similar to other Psychodopygus species; spermathecal individual ducts rugose, 2.0 times or more the length of spermatheca, the common duct completely striated (Young & Duncan 1994, Galati 2003).

Material examined. Collected with CDC light traps. MEXICO: CHIAPAS: Guadalupe Miramar, 12-viii-2009, 3 ♂; 20-x-2010, 1 ♂; 18-xi-2010, 2 ♂; 05-xii-2010, 1 ♀; 23-i-2011, 2 ♀.

Collected with Magoon traps. MEXICO: CHIAPAS: Guadalupe Miramar: 11-viii-2009, 1 ♀; 03-xii-2010, 1 ♀. Loma Bonita, 18-ii-2010, 1 ♀.

Distribution. COSTA RICA, PANAMA, SURINAME, FRENCH GUIANA, BRAZIL (Young & Duncan 1994, Galati 2003), and now MEXICO (Chiapas).

Remarks. This is the first record of Ps. corossoniensis in Mexico, and the northernmost of its distribution. Female are not possible to separate from that of Psychodopygus geniculatus (Mangabeira 1941) , Ps. guyanensis (Floch & Abonnenc 1941) , and probably Ps. dorlinsis (LePont & Desjeux 1982) . Few specimens of this species were collected in this study. Half of them were captured in CDC light traps at transects in the ever-green forest; the rest were collected in CDC light traps within communities outside houses or with a Magoon trap in the locality periphery.
