REMARKS.— Fidicinoides ptychodiropeda is the third Ecuadorian species of Fidicinoides without infuscated wings. It can be distinguished from F. picea by the posterior margin of the timbal cavity that is smoothly curved on the posterolateral margin but forms a right angle in the new species, the wide lateral pronotal collar that lacks the folding characteristic of the new species, and the uncus lacks the very large, broad, flat medial extension of the lateral branch of the uncus found in the new species. The most similar species is F. pronoe but the new species can be distinguished quickly by the fold in the lateral pronotal collar and the large, square lateral uncus lobes of the new species. The remaining Ecuadorian species of the genus possess infuscation in the wings which quickly distinguish them from F. ptychodiropeda .

DISTRIBUTION.—The species was reported previously only from the type locality in Peru ( Sanborn 2020b).

MATERIAL EXAMINED FOR NEW RECORD.— “ ECUADOR Napo Prov / Misahualli ~ 350 m / 7 October 2001 / Mark Churchill coll.” one female ( MSUC).
