Material examined. 1 male Site 6, J.A. Márquez col. 18-I-2018 ( UNRC-ZIIO 0177) and 1 male Site 6, J.A. Márquez col. 21-I-2018 ( UNRC-ZIIO 0179).

Identification. This species is characterized by the pos- terior end of median lobe of the cercus meeting the supe- rior ridge at a right angle, and by the length of median lobe which is approximately equal to the distal 0.33 of cercus. The distal process of the paraproct bears a slight, medially directed blunt tooth which occupyies the distal 0.10 of the appendage ( Garrison 1990: fig. 30). This last character allows for the separation of H. rosea from H. mendezi , which is similar and also found in Argentina; H. mendezi has the posterior 0.20 of the distal process of the paraproct forming a strong 90 degree recurved tooth ( Garrison 1990).
