This study is part of a taxonomic work that aims to describe new and known taxa of Tachinidae in Guanacaste Conservation Area in Costa Rica. The researchers describe 33 new species in the Belvosia genus, which were reared from wild-caught caterpillars of various families. Morphological descriptions, limited life history information, molecular data, and photographs are provided for each species. The authors also provide a redescription of the Belvosia genus and a key for identifying species in the Meso- and North-American fauna.
Background This revision is part of a continuing series of taxonomic work aimed at the description of new taxa and the redescription of known taxa of the Tachinidae of Area de Conservacion Guanacaste in northwestern Costa Rica. Here we describe 33 new species in the genus Belvosia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (Diptera: Tachinidae). All species described here were reared from this ongoing inventory of wild-caught caterpillars spanning a variety of families (Lepidoptera: Erebidae, Eupterotidae, Noctuidae, Notodontidae, Saturniidae, and Sphingidae). We provide a morphological description of each species with limited & COPY; Fleming A et al.

In addition to the new species, the authors provide a redescription of the genus Belvosia, as well as provide a key to the identification of the species present in the Meso-and North-American fauna.
