Abstract
Paraleptophlebia jenseni, n. sp., is described from male adults from Klicki tat County, Washington. The species has also been collected from Owyhee Cou nty, Idaho, and is most closely related to P. traverae, n. sp., which is ba sed on the male adult from Idaho County, Idaho, previously misidentified as P. rufivenosa. Forewing pigmentation and morphology of the penes are diagn ositic of the new species.
