Comments. The holotype of C. yungas is well preserved, with no missing parts. Externally C. yungas is very similar to C. plaumanni . Nevertheless, C. yungas presents a wide shallow sulcus in the ocellar triangle, a long sensorial pit on the first flagellomere, a complete facial carina, and almost indistinct scutum stripes. No additional specimens of C. yungas have been found in the collections studied.
