Abstract

A new species of Colobothea (Lamiinae: Colobotheini), C. darienita sp. nov. is described from Panama. Four new geographical records for Panama are provided: Anopliomorpha hirsuta (Linsley, 1935); Eclipta ficta Bezark, Martins & Santos-Silva, 2013; Phrynocris notabilis Bates, 1867. Meanwhile, Sangaris luteonotata Monné & Monné, 2009 is recorded for the first time in Peru. Additionally, four new records are also provided: Chrysoprasis hirtula White 1853; Aneflus (Protaneflus) minutivestis Chemsak & Linsley, 1963; Ectenessa wappesi Galileo & Santos-Silva, 2016; and Stizocera lissonota (Bates, 1870). Taxonomical and distributional notes on Limernaea ochracea (Fisher, 1927) are provided.
