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 Genus Dybasia Loomis Dybasia Loomis, 1964 , p. 100 Loomis (1964) described three species of this Panamanian genus in three separate genera, which I synonymized under Dybasia in 1972. He also established a separate family Dybasiidae for these obvious cleidogonids. Loomis extended the range of the genus into Costa Rica when he described Dybasia interamericana in 1974. The species of Dybasia are small for cleidogonids, about 10–12 mm in length. The gonopods have long anterior sternal extensions which parallel the angiocoxites, and very small colpocoxites. The ninth legs have a long median extension from the coxoprefemur. The Panamanian species have prominent segmental paranota, but these were not described by Loomis (1974) for D. interamericana . Three of the four species are illustrated in my 1972 monograph, and D. interamericana by Loomis (1974). Cleidogona austrina (see above) may also belong in this genus.
