Dissomphalus angulatus Azevedo, 1999: 331 –332 (♂, holotype from Costa Rica, CNCI, figs 49, 173–174).

Diagnosis. Mandible tridentate. Clypeus with median lobe ill-defined. Tergal process median with deep and large elliptical depression, occupying slightly more than median third of the width of the tergite with two rounded median tuft of setae. Hypopygium with median concavity. Genitalia: paramere with apex truncare and oblique with four projections low and rounded; aedeagal ventral ramus shorter than aedeagal dorsal body, flattened, narrow, wholly arched; median part outward and apex abruptly angulate outward; aedeagal dorsal body not so wide laterally, narrowing to apex, with sufaces vertical and apex slightly divergent, ventral margin serrated. Apodeme not extending beyond genital ring.

Remarks. This species was known from Costa Rica ( Azevedo 1999a) and is recorded for the first time from Panama. Some variations are worth to mention: metasoma light castaneous and dark castaneous; median clypeal tooth short; anterior margin of pronotal disc coarse; depression of tergal process shallow, more distant each other with few and shorter tuft of setae, some specimens have dense and longer tuft of setae.
