    Callipia jakobi sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act:3D00FE40-D169-4ED1-9CD8-B6424EF12955 Figs 8, 13 BIN (holotype): BOLD:AAK2186. Diagnosis The smallest species of the balteata group, relatively pale and less contrasting patterns of the wings than in the other species. The cornuti of the vesica are much longer than in the other species of the balteata group. COI-barcode: the observed distance to the genetically most similar species (C. balteata) is 4.3%. Etymology The species is named in honour of my son Jakob Brehm, Jena, Germany. Type material Holotype (Figs 8, 13) BOLIVIA: ♂, [La Paz Department], Route La Paz-Rio Songo [Rio Zongo, ca 16.104° S, 68.065° W], 3300 m, 3 Mar. 1984, G. Lachaume and T. Porion leg. (ZSM) (C-0190 with GS-409, COI sequence 658 bp, BIN). Description As illustrated. Only a single male is known. Distribution Eastern Andes of W Bolivia, 3300 m a.s.l. Distance to the collection site of C. balteata is ca 250 km. Without assignment to group Callipia paradisea is known from a few specimens only. Wing patterns and structure of male genitalia not easily fitting into any of the other groups, but vicinaria group is possibly most closely related. Since no molecular data are available either, C. paradisea is provisionally treated separately.Published as part of Brehm, Gunnar, 2018, Revision of the genus Callipia Guenée, 1858 (Lepidoptera, Geometridae), with the description of 15 new taxa, pp. 1-54 in European Journal of Taxonomy 404 on page 14, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2018.404, http://zenodo.org/record/117712

Diagnosis Specimens of C. jonai sp. nov. were frequently assigned to flagrans in museum collections, but when seen in larger series, C. jonai sp. nov. has a deeper orange-red than flagrans which is more yellowish. See also diagnosis in C. flagrans. COI-barcode: the minimum observed distance to the genetically most similar (but not similar looking) species (C.intermedia stat. rev.) is 2.7%.

    Callipia walterfriedlii sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act:D1088620-C594-4A25-89F9-3C1F88F1814B Figs 24–27, 32–33, 35, 37, 40–41, 132–134 BIN (holotype): BOLD:AAF5633. Diagnosis Callipia walterfriedlii sp. nov. has a similar wing shape and size like C. vicinaria. Diagnosis from C. hausmanni sp. nov., see there. Males tend to have a more contrasting pattern than C. vicinaria, particularly on the forewing costal area. The white transversal band on the hindwing is broader than in C. vicinaria. The females are very similar, but the extent of the ochreous colour in the forewing is larger. The uncus tends to be broader than in C. vicinaria. COI-barcode: the minimum observed distance to the genetically most similar species (C.vicinaria) is 3.3%. Etymology The species is named in honour of Walter Friedli, Schwarzenburg, Switzerland.

    Callipia hausmanni sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act:2B092DCC-DA6D-420D-BF9E-BAC7073F34D6 Figs 28–29, 34, 38, 42 BIN (holotype): BOLD:AAZ7888. Diagnosis While males of C. hausmanni sp. nov. look rather similar as the other three species of the complex, the females are easily distinguished: only females of C. hausmanni sp. nov. possess broad cream white margins and a large pale rosy base of the forewing. The males have purely cream white fringes, a relatively intensive rosy basal area of the forewings and a more contrasting pattern of the hindwings than the related species. The male genitalia are characterised by a rectangular shape of the tegumen (rounded in the other species) and a narrower uncus. The spine-like processes of the valvae are long and slightly curved. COI-barcode: the minimum observed distance to the genetically most similar species (C. vicinaria) is 5.0%. Etymology The species is named in honour of Axel Hausmann (ZSM), Munich, a leading Geometridae expert in acknowledgment of his support for this study.
