Comments. This species was recently described from the State of Pará, in Brazil. The Zurquí specimens agree externally with the original description of the species. J. sasakawai is a black species without any metallic reflection. The male genitalia appear to show slight variation including a few more spines on the surstyli (Fig. 28) (apparently 7 not 5) and a slightly bent apex of distiphallus (Fig. 29). The cerci are very large (Fig. 28, arrow) as originally described. This species was identified as morphospecies (J. ZADBI-1) in Borkent et al. 2018.

Host plant. Terminalia catappa L. ( Combretaceae) (Monteiro, Carvalho-Filho & Esposito, 2015).

Distribution. Brazil, Costa Rica * (Fig. 55).
