Redescription of Wyeomyia (Decamyia) felicia (Dyar amp; Nez Tovar, 1927) and description of a new species of the subgenus from Trinidad (Diptera: Culicidae).

Mosquito species of the subgenus Decamyia Dyar, 1919 of genus Wyeomyia Theobald, 1901 are known to have immature stages mostly associated with Heliconia plants. Currently, the subgenus includes five species, some of which are poorly characterized. Here, we redescribe and illustrate the larval, pupal and adult life stages of Wy. felicia (Dyar Nez Tovar, 1927). In addition, Wyeomyia monticola, a new species of Decamyia from Trinidad, close to Wy. felicia, is described. The new species can be distinguished by morphological characters of the male genitalia, larva and pupa.

A new species of Wyeomyia (Diptera: Culicidae) from Heliconia flower bracts in northern South America.

A new species of the genus Wyeomyia, Wyeomyia (Decamyia) anthica sp. n., is described based on morphological and molecular analyses and is illustrated in larval, pupal and adult life stages. Among the four valid species of the subgenus Decamyia, the new species is closest to Wy. ulocoma (Theobald, 1903), from which it can be distinguished by morphological characters of the male genitalia, larval and pupal stages, and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase 1 gene sequence. Wyeomyia ulocoma is recorded from Brazil for the first time.
