Fig. 6B

Material studied.

Colombia • 67 specimens; Cundinamarca, pools by the road from Bogotá before Matarredonda park; 3,300 m alt.; 20.xi.2018; 4.564, -74.008; Ospina, Balke & Megna leg.; COL_MB_2018_09; UNAL, ZSM .

Notes.

This form is intermediate between two subspecies, in terms of body size and coloration (Fig. 6B). Females are mostly completely microreticulation dorsally as in L. b. bogotensis, but in some the head and pronotum are shiny, and the elytra have microreticulation only apically. The metathoracic wings are large, as in L. b. bogotensis . Some specimens determined by body size and dorsal coloration would be assigned to L. b. matarredonda, but are fully winged (Fig. 6B).

Measurements

(N = 20). Total length 2.2-2.5 mm (mean 2.36); length without head 1.9-2.2 mm (mean 2.02); maximum width 1.1-1.2 mm (mean 1.07).
