Type species. Justinia septa Evans, 1955 View in CoL .

Definition. While confidently monophyletic with Justinia Evans, 1955 View in CoL (type species Hesperia justinianus Latreille, 1824 View in CoL ) separated from the Justinia View in CoL core group of species by a prominent genetic gap ( Fig. 16 View Figure 16 ) and therefore a distinct taxon. Keys to J.49.7a in Evans (1955). Distinguished from other Justinia species by small pale spot in discal cell on ventral hindwing, two such spots in forewing discal cell, and harpe not extending dorsally beyond ampulla. In DNA, a combination of the following base pairs is diagnostic: aly1222.15.2:A9212C, aly 1651.2.5:C5104A, aly2178.30.1:A34G, aly 1450.10.1:C985A, and aly208.17.4:A1281G.

Etymology. The name is a feminine noun in the nominative singular formed from the type species name.

Species included. The type species and Eutychide maculata Bell, 1930 .

Parent taxon. Genus Justinia Evans, 1955 .
