(
Figs. 8
,
17–18
)
Type-locality:
Lino, [Boquete Dist.,
Chiriquí
],
Panama
.
Diagnosis
. Wing expanse
12 mm
female (n = 1). The female genitalia of this species are distinct, with a small semicircular signum on the bursa wall (

Holotype
.
Female
,
Lino
(
800 m
), [Boquete Dist.,
Chiriquí
],
Panama
, [1930?] (gen. slide J. Razowski-4230) (
NHMV
).
Biology
. Unknown.
Distribution
. Known only from western
Panama
(
Chiriquí
).
Discussion
. While the wing maculation is similar to other species of the genus, the female genitalia do not conform, hence, the male is necessary to verify whether this species belongs in
Cirrothaumatia
.
