Diagnosis. Base of pronotum, in dorsal view, with four lateral longitudinal rugae; two conical middorsal peaks behind humeral angles; posterolateral area of pronotum projected laterally.
Description. Abdomen. Female. First valvulae. Ventral interlocking device bent, without preapical prominence in dorsal or ventral margin ( Fig. 18B View FIGURE 18 ). Second valvulae blade-shaped without tooth on dorsal surface ( Fig. 19B View FIGURE 19 ). For addition detail see Gonzalez-Mozo et al, 2017.
Measurements. Female. Total length 7.4; head width 2.5; head length 1.5; pronotum length 6.6; width between humeral angles 4.6.
Distribution. Colombia.
Material examined. Holotype female: Label information: “ COLOMBIA, Boyaca ́, SFF de Iguaque, 5 o 25’N, 73 o 27’W, 2.300 m. Golpeteo. 22-vi-1998. D. Di ́az” ( IAvH, Catalogue No. IAvH-E-141117). GoogleMaps
Comments. The original description ( Gonzalez-Mozo et al, 2017), did not provide a description or images of the genitalia, which are provided here. In contrast to other Allocyphotes species, in A. colombiensis the posterolateral area of the pronotum is well projected laterally but does not extend beyond the humeral angles (as in A. pompanoni ). Other characters that support the new placement of this species in Allocyphotes are its trilobate humeral angles, the presence of an s crossvein in the forewing, and its geographic distribution. Allocyphotes colombiensis is also the only species recorded for Colombia and recorded in highlands at 2300 meters of altitude.
