GUTIERREZ-CARRANZA, Ishwari G. et al. Pyropyga julietafierroae sp. nov. (Coleoptera: Lampyridae): An example of citizen participation in science. Acta Zool. Mex [online]. 2023, vol.39, e3912587.  Epub 01-Dez-2023. ISSN 2448-8445.  https://doi.org/10.21829/azm.2023.3912587.

We present the description of Pyropyga julietafierroae sp. nov., including the female genitalia, so that it is the first time that these structures are described for a female of the genus Pyropyga Motschulsky, 1852. The new species was recovered from the urbanized environment of Ciudad Universitaria, Mexico City. The total number of species for the genus increases to 13, of which, eight are recorded from Mexico. A distribution map of Mexican species is included. Moreover, herein we comment on the citizen involvement for the proposal and choice of the scientific name with the theme “Illustrious Mexican Women”, this is the first time that a dynamic like this is carried out for naming a firefly species in our country.
