We discovered a highly characteristic new species, based on male genital morphology, <jats:italic>Liodessus santarosita<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>sp. nov.<\/jats:bold>, in the P\u00e1ramo de Guantiva-Rusia. Specimens from the Altiplano around Bogot\u00e1, and the P\u00e1ramos of Almorzadero, Chingaza, Matarredonda, Rabanal y Rio Bogot\u00e1 and Sumapaz form one clade of genetically similar populations based on mitochondrial <jats:italic>Cox1<\/jats:italic> sequence data. The individuals of this clade are sub-structured according to their geographic distribution. The populations differ from each other mainly in terms of body size and coloration and, at most, subtly in their genital morphology. In two cases, we find putative hybrid populations between Altiplano and P\u00e1ramo areas. We suggest that the different P\u00e1ramo populations are in an early phase of speciation, and perhaps already genetically isolated in some cases. They are here assigned subspecies status to highlight these ongoing processes pending more comprehensive geographic sampling and use of genomic data. We refer to this clade as the <jats:italic>Liodessus bogotensis<\/jats:italic> complex, containing <jats:italic>Liodessus b. bogotensis<\/jats:italic> Guignot, 1953; <jats:italic>Liodessus b. almorzadero<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>ssp. nov.<\/jats:bold>; <jats:italic>Liodessus b. chingaza<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>ssp. nov.<\/jats:bold>; <jats:italic>Liodessus b. lacunaviridis<\/jats:italic> Balke et al., 2021, <jats:bold>stat. nov.<\/jats:bold>; <jats:italic>Liodessus b. matarredonda<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>ssp. nov.<\/jats:bold>, and <jats:italic>Liodessus b. sumapaz<\/jats:italic><jats:bold>ssp. nov.<\/jats:bold><\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3897\/zookeys.1143.97461","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,31]],"date-time":"2023-01-31T16:06:16Z","timestamp":1675181176000},"page":"165-187","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["\ufeffEastern Colombian P\u00e1ramo Liodessus Guignot, 1939 diving beetles are genetically structured, but show signs of hybridization, with description of new species and subspecies (Coleoptera, Dytiscidae)"],"prefix":"10.3897","volume":"1143","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3773-6586","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Michael","family":"Balke","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katja","family":"Neven","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3531-0821","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Adri\u00e1n","family":"Villastrigo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rodulfo","family":"Ospina-Torres","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carlos","family":"Prieto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicolas","family":"Gutierrez Rubiano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ingrid","family":"Lotta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0756-826X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Luisa F.","family":"Due\u00f1as","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8366-0749","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Lars","family":"Hendrich","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2258","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"97461_B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.11646\/zootaxa.4852.2.1"},{"key":"97461_B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3897\/alpento.4.55139"},{"key":"97461_B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1163\/22119434-20192084"},{"key":"97461_B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3897\/zookeys.1059.70134"},{"key":"97461_B5","first-page":"1","article-title":"Generic review of the Bidessini (Coleoptera, Dytiscidae).
