Specimen examined: 1♀. Costa Rica, Alajuela. Camino a Reserva Manuel Antonio Brenes , en el camino 760 msnm. 26 April 2012. 10.230509N - 84.560110W. Monzón y Camposeco leg. ( CAUD) .

Measurements (mm): TL: 24; Pr: 6.5; HF: 26; HT: 27; Ov: 14.

DNA. F2330 mapped ( Fig. 2) in Vandergast et al. (2017). Although our specimen mapped with the Glaphyrosoma / Cnemotettix clade, its closest relative is Lezina concolor Walker, 1869 .

Comments. The female studied here fits the diagnostic characteristics of the specimens studied by Richardson et al. (2019) ( Fig. 17). Additionally, this female was included (F2330) in the genetic analysis of Vandergast et al. (2017) as “new genus Costa Rica ”. Initially it was considered as a different genus because of differences with congeners. But comparing our specimen with the data provided by Richardson et al. (2019), specimens appear conspecific.
