( Figs 4 , 7 A–B , 8 D , 9 ) Etymology. Reference to the short peritreme of the species. Rugula—small crease. Holotype male. BOLIVIA , Cochabamba : Cristal Mayu , Chapare , 10–XII–1954 , Luis E. Peña ( 17°00’22.62” S 65°38’28.62” W ) ( USNM ). Measurements. Head length (1.4); head width (2.5); pronotum length (2.5); pronotum width (6.0); scutellum length (4.9); scutellum width (3.6); length of antennal segments (I: 0.7; II: 1.0; III: 1.0; IV: 1.5; V missing); total length (11.6); abdominal width (6.6). Diagnose. Pronotum rugose. Arms of the anterior bifurcation of the metasternal process clavate ( Fig. 4 D ); excavation short receiving part of the fourth rostral segment. Peritreme reaching 1/3 of the distance between ostiole of the scent gland and lateral margin of the body ( Fig. 8 D ). Evaporatorium with a long and raised crest in mesopleuron delimited by sulci; contiguous margin of meso and metapleuron also raised; metapleuron with two distinct raised crests one short medial and the other long distal.
