Remarks. Chilenana DeLong & Freytag, 1967 is a genus endemic to Chile and is one of only two known genera of Gyponini , the other being the Brazilian genus Fulana Gonçalves, Domahovski, Mejdalani and Takiya, 2021 , with the male pygofer having a membranous flexible cleft between the basal portion and lateral lobes, and a basoventral process, similar to those present in other tribes of Iassinae ( Freytag & DeLong 1971, DeLong & Freytag 1967; Domahovski 2019; Gonçalves et al. 2021). Besides that, the slender subgenital plates and Y-shaped aedeagus in posterior view with one of the processes asymmetrical are features commonly found in Chilenana . Gypona bipartita Linnavuori & DeLong, 1977 , described from Chile, has all the above mentioned characteristics of the male genitalia present in the genus Chilenana . Gypona bipartita is most similar to Chilenana similara DeLong & Freytag, 1967 , differing in having the stylus and aedeagus slightly more elongated ( DeLong & Freytag, 1967: 109, figs 21–16; Linnavuori & DeLong, 1977: 267, figs 462–466). Therefore, G. bipartita is here transferred to Chilenana .
