( Figs. 26, 28 ) (figs. 19–22 in Lopes 1941, Figs. 1–3 in Lopes 1954)

Ctenoprosballia enderleini Townsend, 1931b: 76 . Colombia, Bogotá. [Junior secondary homonym of Adiscochaeta enderleini Engel, 1931 .] Holotype male, in ZMHB (not examined).

Paraphrissopoda (Euboettcheria) naides Lopes, 1941: 377 . Colombia. Holotype male, in BMNH (not examined).

Description. Male. Head. Ocellar setae stronger than postoculars. Outer vertical seta stronger than postoculars. Black orbital setae. Four frontal setae situated below the dorsal limit of the lunule. All genal setae black. First two rows of occipital setae black, others yellow. Thorax. Chaetotaxy: acrostichals = 0 + 1, dorsocentrals = 0 + 3 (anterior one shorter), intra-alars = 2 + 2 (anterior one shorter), supra-alars = 2 + 3, basal scutellars = 4. Prosternum and posterior surface of hind coxa with black setae. Three katepisternal setae. Postalar wall with only black setae. Lower calypter with a central dark spot and a fringe of long hair-like setae along outer margin, extending almost to its posterior margin. Mid femur with a ctenidium. Hind tibia antero-dorsally with 1 seta in the basal third, 1 in the middle third and 1 preapical. Hind femur with a row of antero-ventral and a row of postero-ventral setae. Anterodorsal surface of mid tibia with 2 median and 1 apical seta. Abdomen. Postero-ventral seams between T3/T4 and T4/T5 parallel. Microtrichosity of the abdomen laterally grey. ST1+3 with only black hair-like setae. Two lateral setae on each side of T4. T5 with grey microtrichosity. Terminalia. ST5 orange. Medial margin of ST5 ∏-shaped. Inner margins of ST5 arms straight, with a patch of short setae on the median region. Posterior region of ST5 arms bent ventrally. Syntergosternite 7+8 longer than high in lateral view, orange, with golden microtrichosity. Epandrium bright orange. Cercus orange proximally and brown or dark brown distally. Cercus in lateral view progressively narrowing towards the acute apex. Dorsal margin of cercus curved in lateral view, with setae distributed apically. Cercal prongs with the apex twisted to the median line in dorsal view, with the apex oriented ventrally in lateral view. Surstylus orange, finger-shaped with anterior margin slightly projected towards the anterior body region, with a rounded apex. Pregonite tongue-shaped, curved in lateral view, with a lateral projection, an apical incision, and an undulated apex. Postgonite elongated, with a hooked apex. Basi- and distiphallus connected by a desclerotized strip. Juxta without demarcated connection with the phallic tube. Juxta sclerotized and composed of one long plate without juxtal lateral plate and juxtal horns. Juxta with the lateral edges folded ventrally, resembling a tube narrowed towards the straight apex. Distiphallus with a pair of lateral styli separated, each with a longitudinal cleft. Short vesica composed of one entire plate without demarcated connection with the distiphallus.

Variable features. Ocellar setae of same size as postoculars. Outer vertical seta of same size as postoculars. Three or 4 frontal setae situated below the dorsal limit of the lunule on the left side, and 3 or 4 on the right side. Chaetotaxy: 2 postsutural acrostichal setae on the left side, and 1 on the right side, dorsocentrals = 2 + 4 (anterior two shorter).

Distribution. NEOTROPICAL— Colombia (Amazonas, Boyacá, Cundinamarca, Caldas, Magdalena, Tolima), Ecuador, Venezuela (Aragua).
