Type
specimen
. Ψ
holotype
(
NMNH
) taken by C. Beutelspacher,
22 October
1968
, 6 km (3.8 mi) from Bochil, Chiapas,
Mexico
. This village is approximately
40 km
(
25 mi
) NE
San Cristobal
las Casas, but its direction from Bochil is unknown.
Habitat
. The
holotype
was encountered in
Vriesia chiapensis
Matuda (
Loomis 1971
)
.
Remarks
. The specific identity of
lateralis
, the youngest name in the genus, cannot be determined until a reasonably topotypical adult male is collected. I provide an illustration of the cyphopods (
Fig. 3
).
