Authors/Creators
Description
CARPOSINA NEW SPECIES 11 (FIGS 2E, 3E)
Material examined: United States: Hawaiian Islands: Hawaii: Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Desolation Trail, 929 m, N19.36880 W155.3674. ♂ (slide LB 36♂). D Rubinoff & A Kawahara. UHIM.
Remarks: This specimen has unique genitalia and a wing pattern unlike the other species near it in Figure 1, but the specimen is somewhat rubbed. Without additional material, we do not feel a full description is warranted at this time. The designation as new species 11 follows the sequence initiated by Zimmerman (1978).
