Abstract

In this study we use a combination of morphological, molecular (mtDNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene), geographic and ecological (field observations and cpDNA sequences from ingested plant tissue) data to describe and diagnose a new southern Nearctic leaf beetle species of Calligrapha Chevrolat, 1836 (Chrysomelidae: Chrysomelinae): [b]Calligrapha thermalis Gomez-Zurita, sp.
