Figures 2I, J , 21

Type locality.

Piste Patagai-Counamama, French Guiana.

Diagnosis.

Externally, O. wayana sp. nov. is similar to O. xeta sp. nov., slightly lighter grey and larger (21 mm forewing length). The two subapical hyaline spots between M1 and M3 are tiny. In the genitalia, O. wayana sp. nov. differs from O. xeta sp. nov. by the absence of a protrusion on the apex of the aedeagus and vesica with a plate with minute teeth.

Description (Figs 2I, J , 21 ).

Head. Male. As in O. xeta sp. nov. Female. Unknown. - Thorax. -As in O. xeta sp. nov. - Legs. As in O. xeta sp. nov. - Wings shape and venation. As in O. jairana sp. nov. (Fig. 2I, J ). Forewing length: 21 mm (n = 04). Upperside and underside: Similar to O. xeta sp. nov., slightly lighter grey. The subapical hyaline spots between M1 and M3 are tiny. Hindwing. Upperside and underside: Similar to O. xeta sp. nov. - Abdomen. Similar to O. xeta sp. nov. - Genitalia. (Fig. 21 ). Similar to O. xeta sp. nov., but bigger, without a protrusion on the apex of the aedeagus and vesica with a plate with minute teeth.

Distribution.

French Guiana.

Etymology.

This species is named after the Wayana indigenous people, inhabiting along the Maroni River, at the border between French Guiana and Suriname.

3.2. Maximum Likelihood Tree

Based on sequences of the mitochondrial COX1 gene (barcode region, 658pb), our reconstructed tree recovers O. jairana sp. nov. and O. quilombola sp. nov. as a sister group to O. xeta sp. nov. and O. wayana sp. nov., although this relationship is not well supported. This clade is sister to a cluster that includes the Central American O. bifenestrata and the North American O. angelica , O. indistincta , and O. seraphica (Fig. 23 ). This relationship, however, shows low support. The topology obtained between the Olceclostera new species supports their distinctiveness, whose genetic distances ranged from 3.4% to 10% (Table 1 ).
