Abstract
We describe a new species of Oedipina (subgenus Oedopinola) from Parque Nacional Pico Bonito in the central portion of the Cordillera Nombre de Dios in north-central Honduras. The new species was previously assigned to O. gephyra, but a combination ofmolecular analyses and its differences in foot morphology diagnose it from O. gephyra.
