Diagnosis

Males of Hatitia oxapampa sp. nov. resemble those of H. canchaque and H. machiguenga sp. nov. by the projected tegulum (Figs 11D–H, 12C–H, 13C–H) but differ by the triangular projection of the tegulum, the short curved cymbial projection positioned retrolaterally, and the large median and hook-shaped apophysis (Fig. 12C–H).

Etymology

The specific epithet is a toponymic in apposition and refers to the type locality.
