Hydraena sp.

Comments.

This species was collected at all sampled levels (670-1,776 m), on substrates of gravel, macrophytes, and leaf packs, throughout the sampling months (February 2018 through February 2019, dry and rainy season). Specimens were small and fragile, particularly males, and dissection was difficult, moreover genital morphology did not match species in keys, so genus-level identification was considered until further study; females were more abundant in collections.
