A new miniature species of the milliped genus Cleidogona from Costa Rica (Diplopoda, Chordeumatida, Cleidogonidae), with a review of Central American Cleidogonidae Author Shear, William A. text Zootaxa 2013 3635 1 87 93 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.3635.1.9 c2e1b77b-2a89-46f8-8b24-64ae71254792 1175-5326 283539 3B9C28A8-B64D-46AB-BE68-BF6CA85DBCAF Cleidogona tajmulco Chamberlin Cleidogona tajmulco Chamberlin, 1952 , p. 15; Shear, 1972, p. 158. Type and only locality: Volcán Tajmulco , San Marcos Dept., Guatemala . As with C. punctifer (above), this species was described from a single female, which could not be found in 1972. In the same publication, Chamberlin (1952) described C. mandeli from a male collected at the same place and on the same day as the female holotype of C. tajmulco , but wrote that C. tajmulco was “a larger, more robust form than mandeli ...(Chamberlin 1952)” and gave its length as about 3 mm longer than the latter species. There is ample precedent for syntopy in Méxican and Central American cleidogonids, but the size difference in the two specimens does not preclude their being male and female of the same species.
