| Abstract: | Lobopoda wittmeri n. sp. is described from the Dominican Republic; the male of L. notapuncta Campbell is described for the first time. Lobopoda haitensis, L. notapuncta, and Hymenorus haitius previously known only from Haiti are reported from the Dominican Republic; Allecula ramosi previously known from Puerto Rico is also reported from the Dominican Republic. Hymenorus convexus and H. jamaicensis known previously from the Bahama Islands and Cuba and from Jamaica respectively are reported for the first time from the Cayman Islands. A key is presented to aid in identification of the Alleculidae of the Cayman Islands and Hispaniola. |
