Hagnagora clustimena (Druce, 1893) View in CoL Figs 18-20
Type locality.
Mexico: Coatepec.
Remarks.
Hagnagora clustimena was originally assigned by Druce to Heterusia and then transferred to Hagnagora by Parsons et al. (1999). Hagnagora clustimena and Hagnagora croceitincta appear to occur allopatrically.
Distribution.
Besides the type specimens described by Druce from Mexico and Panama, recently collected and barcoded specimens were sampled in Honduras and Costa Rica between 850 and 1550 m a.s.l.
Diagnosis.
On average smaller than Hagnagora croceitincta and slightly larger than Hagnagora mirandahenrichae (see Hagnagora croceitincta ). The white transversal blotch on the forewing stretches to the costal margin and the apical dark-brown area reaches vein CuA2, as also observed in mirandahenrichae . Hagnagora clustimena is slightly paler than Hagnagora mirandahenrichae . The male genitalia of both species are similar, but the valves are broader and differently shaped to mirandahenrichae . COI barcode: The minimum observed distance to the presumably most closely related species ( Hagnagora mirandahenrichae ) is 4.6%.
