Josia infausta Hering Plate View in CoL 32
Josia infausta Hering, 1925: 527 View in CoL , fig. 71b.
TYPE LOCALITY: Colombia, Río San Juan. TYPE: Holotype ♀, ‘‘Tr.’’ ( ZMH).
DISCUSSION: Based on superficial study of the J. infausta type, this species belongs in Josia . According to my observations, the FW shape and color of J. infausta suggest an affinity with J. mononeura and J. insincera . A USNM female from Panama (pl. 32) matches the type of infausta closely. The type locality for J. infausta , Río San Juan, is in the state of Chocó in northwestern Colombia. This habitat is contiguous with lowland Panama, so a Panamanian specimen could conceivably be conspecific. Assuming the USNM female is correctly identified as J. infausta , dissection of that specimen (JSM-546) shows a taxon distinct from J. insincera , but extremely close in genital morphology.
DISTRIBUTION: Colombia (ZMH) ; Panama (USNM).
DISSECTED: ♀, Panama, Trinidad River, Jun 1912, leg. August Busck, USNM (genitalia slide no. JSM-546).
