Head (Fig. 12b): antenna: pedicel black; arista, black and minutely pubescent; fronto-orbital plate, parafacial and gena silver pollinose; gena with few fine hairs along lower margin; facial ridge darkened; frontogenal suture black. Thorax (Fig. 12a, c): entirely gray pollinose; surfaces of dorsum of thorax and scutellum covered with conspicuous short black hairs; sternopleura, hypopleura, pteropleura, and ventral surface of abdomen black pilose; 3 katepisternal bristles; 3 postsutural supra-alar bristles, 2nd postsutural supra-alar 4X as long as 1st postsutural supra-alar; postpronotum and anepisternum bearing fine black hairs; scutellum bearing one pair of discal bristles; underside of scutellum bearing a tuft of black hairs near basal marginal bristle. Legs: entirely black; femora silver pollinose anterodorsally, covered in long black hairs interspersed among darker hairs and bristles. Wings: smoky gray translucent, brownish infuscate costobasally; wing veins not strongly infuscate; infuscation only visible on anterior half of R4+5 and M. Abdomen (Fig. 12a): 1 pair of median marginal bristles on ST1+2 and T3, row of marginal bristles on T4 and T5; 2 pairs of median discal bristles on T3, T4 and T5; ground color of abdomen black; posterior margin of ST1+2 silver pollinose; silver pollinose crescent-shaped markings midway along length of tergites T3 and T4; T5 bearing 2 silver pollinose blotches; underside of ST1+2, T3, and T4 silver pollinose; underside of T5 darker. Terminalia: not dissected, as we did not want to dissect the holotype and only known specimen of this species. Female: Unknown.  Diagnosis  Uramya lunulacan be distinguished from all other Neotropical species of Uramyaby the following combination of traits: dark brown to black antennae, 3 postsutural supra-alar bristles, 2 strong lateral scutellar bristles, weak discal scutellar bristles, underside of scutellum with a tuft of black hairs near basal marginal bristle, abdomen flattened dorsoventrally, ST1+2 lacking silver pollinose spots on either side of mid-dorsal depression, T5 subtriangular, not strongly produced into a long, tail-like process, 2 pairs of median discal bristles on T3, T4 and T5, and silver pollinosity on underside of abdomen.  Etymology The species epithet is derived from the Latin noun " lunula", for little moon, in reference to the crescent-shaped markings present on the abdomen of this species.  Distribution Costa Rica, ACG (Prov. Guanacaste), 405 m.  Ecology  Uramya lunulahas been reared only once, from a Podalia orsilocha(Cramer) ( Megalopygidae) caterpillar found in ACG rain forest. Podalia orsilochahas been reared 175 times from sibling and non-sibling groups in ACG. 2016-07-17 Reared from the larvae of the Megalopygidae, Podaliaorsilocha CNC, Insects D.
