Edwin Bedoya-Roqueme and André F.A. Lira have described a new species of Tarsoporosus Francke, 1978 (Diplocentridae) from the Colombian Caribbean region.
Tarsoporosus tizopedrosoi Bedoya-Roqueme & Lira, 2022
The total number of species in the genus is now six and the article has an identification key for all known species.
Abstract:
We describe the novel species Tarsoporosus tizopedrosoi sp. n., based on two individuals collected from a humid forest in the south of Córdoba in the Colombian Caribbean region. This new species is distinguished by its smooth, shiny surface without granules, pectinal tooth counts, telotarsi spiniform macrosetae formula, and measurements of its morphological structures. A distribution map, ecological comments, and taxonomic key are described.
