Diagnosis

(from Guadanucci 2011). Differs from other ischnocoline and resembles genus Catumiri Guadanucci, 2004 by the labium much wider than long, bearing a reduced number of cuspules (fewer than 10). It differs from Catumiri Guadanucci, 2004 by the undivided tarsal scopula on legs I–III and scopula on tarsi IV undivided but with a longitudinal band of setae, the metatarsus I having scopula ventrally for all its length, the well-developed retrolateral branch of the male tibial apophysis, the tarsal claws of males without teeth, and by the spermathecae with numerous lobules.
