RA346, ZMUC) which externally was almost identical to G. flagellata but in the male genitalia had no a large compact cluster of spines near phallotrema and, compared with G. flagellata , its genitalia capsule is smaller: 300 µm long, 195 µm wide. We recognize it as a new species of Glaucolepis , but we left it undescribed because of the severely broken adult in a plastic tube and rather poor genitalia slide. This specimen RA346 belongs to the G. flagellata group. Material examined. 1 ♂ , CHILE , 20 km S Valdivia , Rincon de la Piedra , at elevation ca. 180 m , 15.xi.1981 , E. S. Nielsen & O.
