Procollina queretaroensis Sanborn, 2007

Procollina queretaroensis Sanborn 2007: 21 (type material in UNAM and AFSC).

Type locality. Km 8 Agua Zarca-La Neblina, 1090 msnm, N21° 15’ 214” W99° 05’ 296”, Queretaro, Mexico.

Remarks. The species is known only the type series collected in Queretaro, Mexico. Body length is 20.58– 22.92 mm and wing span is 64.38–65.68 mm ( Sanborn 2007). Procollina queretaroensis n. sp. can be distinguished from P. biolleyi , P. obesa , P. ustulata n. sp. and P. webbi n. sp. by the bronzing of the fore wing in these species. Similarly, P. guatemalensis n. sp., P. mayaensis n. sp. and P. ulnamaculata n. sp. can be distinguished by the spots in the fore wing ulnar cells 2 and 3 not found in this new species. Procollina parva n. sp. can be distinguished by its head being as wide or wider than the mesonotum and P. minima n. sp. can be distinguished by its small body size and radiomedial crossvein being highly angled with respect to the radial crossvein. The distal fore wing medial veins lack infuscation between the proximal vein divergence and the distal L-shaped infuscation in P. convexa n. sp., P. mesomaculata n. sp., P. nuevoleonensis n. sp., P. tamaulipasensis n. sp. which are spotted in this new species. The infuscation in the hind wing margin of P. queretaroensis distinguishes P. medea which lacks this infuscation. Procollina hondurensis n. sp., P. nicraguaensis n. sp. and P. nigrapilosa n. sp. can be distinguished by their larger body size (body length greater than 23 mm).

Distribution. Specimens have been reported previously only from the state of Queretaro, Mexico ( Sanborn 2007).
