Sterna whitish. Distribution . Argentina (Nieto, 2003). New Record: Brazil : Rio Grande do Sul. Comments . In the key proposed for the South American species of Camelobaetidius (Dominguez et al ., 2006) , C. yacutinga would key as C. anubis (Traver & Edmunds, 1968) . However, adults of both species can be distinguished by abdominal color pattern ( C. yacutinga has a reddish band along the midline of segments II–VI, while in C. anubis the medial reddish brown marks are restricted to segments II and VI) and by the spination of the tarsi ( C. yacutinga has large apical spines on segments I and II of the mid and hind legs, while C. anubis , has only a short apical spine on segment II).
