Abstract: A new species of Platyplastinx Enderlein, 1937, Platyplastinx ibanezbernali sp.
nov., is described from Ecuador based on morphological characters as well as DNA
barcodes from male and female specimens. We provide the first brief description
of an egg for the genus. Furthermore, this species is included in the key to
world species of the genus, and we provide a key to adult males of Platyplastinx
from Ecuador.
