( Figs 17–19 )

Bakeriella bulbosa Azevedo & Moreira in Azevedo et al. 2005: 166 –167 (♀ description); 169 (figs 1–3).

Material examined. Holotype ♀, BOLIVIA, Cochabamba, 67.5 Km E. Villa Tunari , Est. Biol. Valle del Saita , rain forest, 300 m, 17º6'19''S 64º46'57''W, 7–9.II.1999, F[light] I[nterception] T[rap], F. Gérnier col. ( CNCI) . New material: PERU, 3 ♀, Madre de Dios, Cocha Salvador, 310 m, 20–21.X.2000, F[light] I[nterception] T[rap], R. Brooks [col.] ( CNCI).

Diagnosis. FEMALE ( Fig. 17 ) Black. Mandible with five apical teeth ( Fig. 18 ). Clypeus short, median lobe and carina little defined. Antennal scrobe with thick longitudinal carina over torulus. Frons weakly coriaceous. Vertex broadly slightly convex. Ventral side of head gibbous. Pronotal disc with anterior corner angulate; anterior carina complete with inner margin weakly toothed; median carina incomplete anteriorly and touching posterior series of foveae; paralleled by linear depression; lateral margin sharp, but not carinate; posterior margin followed by series of small foveae. Scutellar pit transverse. Mesopleuron with subtegular groove wide anteriorly; anterior fovea subquadrate; upper fovea elliptical; lower fovea with both upper and lower margins defined and irregular ( Fig. 19 ). MALE unknown.
