REMARK
Benoit (1966) considered the holotype of C. straba to be an adult female. However, after examination and dissection of the epigastric furrow of individual BE_RMCA_ARA. Ara.112302, we found that no spermatheca were developed, demonstrating that the holotype is juvenile. Thus, C. straba is herein considered as species inquirenda.
