Einfeldia
- Five specimens of an undescribed
Einfeldia
were collected. The taxonomy of
Einfeldia
has been confused, with some species being allocated to other genera (
Epler et al. 2013
;
Cranston et al. 2016
). I examined the
holotype
of
E. atitlanensis
Sublette & Sasa
, described from
Guatemala
(
Sublette & Sasa 1994
); this new species differs having a larger digitus of the superior volsella, a thinner gonostylus and darkened apices of the leg segments.
