Diagnosis

Callipia vicinaria is one of the smallest known species of Callipia . It is closely related to C.walterfriedlii sp. nov. The spine-like processes on the ventral margin of the valvae are relatively short and the uncus is narrower than in the other closely related species. Other diagnostic characters are discussed in those species. COI-barcode: the minimum observed distance to the genetically most similar species ( C.walterfriedlii sp. nov.) is 3.3%.

Syntypes ( Figs 20 View Figs 20–29 , 30 View Figs 30–38 ) COLOMBIA: 3 ♂, [Tolima], Monte Tolima , 3200 m, [A.H.] Fassl leg. ( USNM). One syntype investigated and designated as lectotype: C-0197 with GS-292 .

Description

As illustrated. The extent of dark brown markings on the wings is more extended and pronounced in the Ecuadorian specimens ( Fig. 23 View Figs 20–29 ) than in the males from Colombia ( Figs 20–22 View Figs 20–29 ).

Distribution

Colombia, eastern Cordillera to north eastern Ecuador, 2500–3200 m.
