Dissomphalus culteratus Alencar & Azevedo, 2006 : 09–11 (♂, holotype from Panama, PMAE, figs 10–11).

Diagnosis. Mandible tridentate. Clypeus trapezoidal. Tergal process with pair of circular, large and deep lateral depressions with dense tuft of convergent setae directed backward. Hypopygium with posterior margin with median convexity. Genitalia: paramere with dorsal margin straight and ventral margin concave; aedeagal ventral ramus shorter than aedeagal dorsal body, laminar, surface horizontal and arched ventrally; basal half wide; inner margin sinuous; apical margin with outer margin straight and inner margin microserrate; aedeagal dorsal body wide, narrowing to apex; apical part with concavity mesad, apex with two arms; crown-process with long lateral prolongation in middle of aedeagal dorsal body. Apodeme extending beyond genital ring.

Remarks. This species is known to Panama (Alencar & Azevedo). In this series, the specimens are quite similar to those previously studied, without any variation that worths to mention.
