Genus Paulipalpina Gnaspini & Peck View in CoL

Paulipalpina Gnaspini & Peck, 1996: 434 View in CoL . Type species: Adelopsis claudicans Szymczakowski View in CoL (orig. des.).

Key: to species in Salgado, 2014a: 20.

Distribution: Neotropical. Note: At least one unidentified (maybe undescribed) species based on a female misidentified as Parapaulipalpina filicornis [see Note under that species; Gnaspini & Peck, 2019: 48, 56 discuss the case but do not describe a species, which would receive the status of ‘species inquirenda’ because it would be based on a single female]; and maybe an additional undescribed species [see Note 1 under P. claudicans ].

Biology: Scavenger in moist forests.
