Diagnosis. Recognized by the dark brown to fusco-testaceous general coloration with pale and black areas ( Fig. 12 ), head with Y-shaped black spot on frons; endosoma with C-shaped distal sclerite ( Fig. 47 ); posterior wall of female genitalia with triangular interramal lobes with short projection on lateroapical margin ( Fig. 102 ).

Redescription. Male: COLORATION: Dark brown to fusco-testaceous. Head: Brown, with Y-shaped black marking extending from longitudinal sulcus to frons, two black patches around antenna and two lateral black spots in neck; eye, mandibular plate, maxillary plate and apex of buccula brown; labium brown with black apex; clypeus uniformly colored (brown); antennal segments brown to black with segment I pale brown. Thorax: Pronotum brown; calli and lateral margins dark brown; inner region of calli pale brown; two rounded black spots on humeral angles; collar pale; longitudinal line on pronotum (sometimes absent) pale; proepisternum black with a yellowish line in margin; scutellum black or brown, with pale longitudinal line. Hemelytra brown; clavus, corium (internal region), and hemelytral membrane brown; embolium and external region of cuneus pale; internal margin of cuneus black; ostiolar peritreme with pale brown margins; abdomen yellowish with a black spot at apex of pygophore. VESTITURE AND STRUCTURE: Head: Antenna with short erect pilosity, antennal segment I 1.2 times width of head (Table 1), two times width of II; segment II 3 times longer than segment I (Table 1). Thorax: Pronotum with anterior lobe abruptly narrowed with golden sparse and erect pilosity. MEASUREMENTS: Table 1. GENITALIA: Pygophore: Elongated, apex slightly rounded ( Fig. 22 ). Parameres: Left paramere sickle-shape, dorsal margin of basal sensory lobe almost straight and ventral margin clearly convex, right paramere straight ( Fig. 34 ). Endosoma: ribbon like sclerite with an expanded lobe that reaches further secondary gonopore covered with microtrichia ( Fig. 47 ), distal sclerite C-shaped with thick spines ( Fig. 47 ).

Female: Similar to male in color, but slightly longer. MEASUREMENTS: Table 1. GENITALIA: First gonapophysis: With broad apical grooved region ( Fig. 68 ). Second gonapophysis: As in Fig. 78 . Dorsal labiate plate with small sclerite caudal to sclerotized rings ( Fig. 90 ). Posterior wall with triangular interramal lobes with a short projection in lateroapical margin ( Fig. 102 ). Dorsal structure covering half of interramal lobes and medial process shaped as an inverted Y ( Fig.102 ).

Geographic distribution. Widely distributed in the Western Hemisphere, ranging from North to South America ( United States, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Cuba, Jamaica, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil and Paraguay) ( Carvalho & Fontes 1981). New records from: Haiti, Dominican Republic, Trinidad and Tobago and Argentina ( Fig. 109 ).

c Plant associations. Fabaceae : Phaseolus vulgaris . Poaceae : Andropogon guayanus , Avena sativa ; Brachiaria decumbens ; Digitaria decumbens ; Digitaria sanguinalis ; Eriochloa polystachya , Oryza sativa ; Panicum maximum , Panicum muticum ; Panicum numidianum ; Triticum vulgare ; Setaria setosa ; Sorghum vulgare ; Zea mays ( Carvalho & Fontes 1981; Hérnandez & Henry 2010, Schuh 2002–2014).

Discussion. Collaria oleosa is similar to C. capixaba by the coloration of head brown, with Y-shaped black marking extending from longitudinal sulcus to frons, but it is distinguished by the general coloration and endosoma with distal sclerite C-shaped. We did not examine and dissected the holotype, because we did not have access to the specimen deposited in the Natural History Museum in London (BMNH). Dr. M. Webb kindly sent us photographs of a syntype, which is deposited in this museum, and bears labels with Distant’s handwriting. Besides that, we worked with abundant material corresponding to the description by Carvalho & Fontes (1981). The revised specimens vary in color depending on the geographic location. In central and northern South America, the specimens are darker, whereas in southern South America they have paler coloration. The head spots can also vary in coloration. Carvalho & Fontes (1981) defined that this species is recognized by the black maxillary plate in females, but in this work we found that the black maxillary plate is shared with other species of genus, therefore it cannot be considered as diagnostic.
