1. Male hind legs unmodified ( Figs. 8 View FIGURE 8 a, 10a and 11a)........................................................... 2
- Male hind legs modified (presence of protuberances, tufts of setae, chitinous structures, etc.) ( Figs. 3 View FIGURE 3 a–e)................ 5
2. Male antennae modified (segments curved, widened) ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 a–g)............................................... 3

3. Male antennal segment I with base as wide as apex ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 f). Male fore femur thickened at base, with a laterobasal projection and a row of long setae at inner margin. Male fore femur without row of spines ( Fig. 10 View FIGURE 10 a). Male hind femur not extended anteriorly ( Fig. 10 View FIGURE 10 a). Male sternites V, VI and VII concave, with tufts of long setae, which are directed to sternite III ( Fig. 10 View FIGURE 10 a). Female with tergite VIII subquadrate, with several setae ( Fig. 10 View FIGURE 10 b); and gonocoxae not directed upward................................................................................................ R. carvalhoi Drake & Harris View in CoL
- Male antennal segment I narrow at basal 1/3, thickened towards apex, with a distal dilated projection ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 g). Male fore femur without a laterobasal projection, with a row of 10 to 11 irregular spines at inner ventrolateral margin ( Fig. 11 View FIGURE 11 a). Male hind femur anteriorly extended into a chitinous structure that reaches the apical region of the coxa ( Fig. 11 View FIGURE 11 a). Male sternites V, VI and VII no concave, without distinct tufts of setae. Female with tergite VIII subtriangular, with two long setae on each side ( Fig. 11 View FIGURE 11 b); and gonocoxae slightly directed upward............................ R. probolicornis Polhemus & Manzano View in CoL
4. Male fore femur with a row of setae at inner margin, without row of spines. Female with connexiva rounded at apex ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 a); tergite VIII subpentagonal ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 a); gonocoxae not directed upward..................... R. minutus minutus Hungerford View in CoL
-. Male fore femur without row of setae at inner margin, with a row of spines at lateroventral inner margin, doubled at basal half ( Fig. 8 View FIGURE 8 a). Female with connexiva short and subquadrate at apex; tergite VIII subrectangular, longer than wide ( Fig. 8 View FIGURE 8 b); gonocoxae slightly directed upward........................................................

6. Male hind trochanter thickened from base to apex. Male hind femur with a pedunculated T-shaped structure at inner margin ( Figs. 3 View FIGURE 3 a and b)....................................................................................... 7
- Hind trochanter of male thickened at base, and reduced towards apex. Male hind femur without T-shaped structure ( Figs. 3 View FIGURE 3 c and d)............................................................................................... 8
7. Male hind trochanter in dorsal view with two teeth-like projections ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 c). Antennal segment I with a row of three to four long stout setae at mediolateral region ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 c). Antennal segment III with a wide medioventral projection and an indentation occupying the distal half ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 c). Female connexiva acute at apex; female tergite VIII subrectangular, longer than wide ( Fig. 5 View FIGURE 5 b)................................................................................. R. bergrothi Meinert View in CoL
- Male hind trochanter without such projections ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 b). Antennal segment I with a group of setae at ventral margin ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 b). Antennal segment III with a small projection at medioventral margin ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 b). Female connexiva rounded at apex, tergite VIII subtriangular ( Fig. 4 View FIGURE 4 b).................................................................... R. imitator (Uhler) View in CoL
8. Male antennal segment IV with a row of four long stout setae, followed by four shorter erect setae ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 e). Male fore femur with four long setae at basal region and three long setae at apical region ( Fig. 7 View FIGURE 7 a). Base of hind femur of male subquadrate ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 e).
