Correction. Kornicker & Iliffe (1998: 62) in a "Material" paragraph incorrectly referred Sta 93-039 to Maya Blue Cenote. It should have been Temple of Doom Cenote, as it was listed in the "Appendix" ( Kornicker & Iliffe 1998: 90).

Supplementary description of adult female. Carapace size (mm): USNM 1021380, length with anterior process 0.87, length excluding anterior process 0.81, height 0.65.

Remarks. Kornicker & Iliffe (1998:90) reported the species to be in the Temple of Doom Cenote in July 1993. The present collection shows that the species continued to inhabit the cenote in July 2000, showing that it was not affected by climatic events occurring during intervening years.
