Abstract

A checklist of the Euglossini of Nicaragua is provided, expanding the previously documented 16 species to 32. New formal records are provided for the following 16 species, all in Euglossa Latreille: Euglossa (Euglossella) cyanura Cockerell, E. (Euglossa) championi Cheesman, E. (E.) cybelia Moure, E. (E.) despecta Moure, E. (E.) hansoni Moure, E. (E.) heterosticta Moure, E. (E.) igniventris Friese, E. (E.) mixta Friese, E. (E.) tridentata Moure, E. (E.) villosiventris Moure, E. (Glossura) allosticta Moure, E. (G.) asarophora Moure and Sakagami, E. (G.) ignita Smith, E. (G.) imperialis Cockerell, E. bursigera Moure, and E. sapphirina Moure, the last two left as subgenus incertae sedis. This summary doubles the known diversity of orchid bees in Nicaragua.
