Abstract
A new species of Colpoptera Burmeister, 1835, C. japortla sp. nov. (Colpopterinae: Colpopterini), is described from Jamaica. The new species was found during a survey of planthoppers associated with coconut palms to document taxa that are potential phytoplasma vectors. Molecular data for the five-prime region of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene and 18S rRNA gene is provided and compared to available members of Colpopterini. Syntypes of Colpoptera rugosa Van Duzee borrowed for comparison with the new species were found to be a mixed series including representatives of Jamaha elevans (Walker). A lectotype designation, with an amended diagnosis, is made for Colpoptera rugosa, to preserve the stability of nomenclature and this species is transferred to Jamaha as J. rugosa, comb. nov.
