Imagos: Unknown.

Etymology. “ Papilionodes ” means “looking like a butterfly”; it refers to the pronotum pattern.

Discussion. Bungona (Centroptella) papilionodes presents all the characteristics of Bungona : sternites IV to VI with a row of long, tubular setae; arcs of long, tubular setae on femora, tibiae and tarsi (Figs. 14, 15); dorsal margins of femora with scarce spatulate setae (Fig. 14); spine-like setae between prostheca and mola of right mandible ( Fig. 4 View FIGURES 2 – 7 b); right prostheca bifid ( Fig. 4 View FIGURES 2 – 7 a) ( Salles et al. 2016). The absence of denticles on tarsal claws ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 8 – 13 ), the labrum with a subdmedian arc composed of about 6 long stout setae ( Fig. 2 View FIGURES 2 – 7 ) and the relatively uniform colouration of the body ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 ) indicate that the species belongs to the subgenus Centroptella rather than Chopralla or Bungona s.s. ( Salles et al. 2016).

Besides the new species described herein, the subgenus Centroptella encompasses two other species: B. (C.) soldani and B. (C.) longisetosa ( Salles et al. 2016) . The main characters used to distinguish these three species are the length of maxillary palp, being short in B. (C.) longisetosa (less than one third of maxilla length); and the presence of an additional small denticle on the outer margin of the outer incisor in Centroptella species except in B. (C.) papilionodes . Additional features that also can be used include the third segment of the labial palp, which is broader in B. (C.) soldani (apical width of segment III is 1.6 × base) than in B. (C.) longisetosa and B. (C.) papilionodes ; B. (C.) papilionodes has small triangular spines on the margin of the lateral extension of the paraproct, whereas these spines are not present in the two other species; the left prostheca has four denticles in B. (C.) longisetosa but three denticles in B. (C.) soldani and B. (C.) papilionodes ( Braasch & Soldán 1980; Müller- Liebenau 1983).

Using the identification key from Soldán et al. (1987), B. (C.) papilionodes will match couplet 11; the species can be separated from C. soldani by the characters listed above. Notice also that B. (C.) similes is wrongly located in couplet 12, as it implies tarsal claws without denticles, whereas they are present, as indicated by the original description ( Müller-Liebenau 1983).
