Figs 1F–1I View FIGURE 1

Diagnosis. Cyrnellus boliviensis is closely related to C. fraternus and C. zapateriensis . It differs from these species by the flat section of the subapicomesal spine. In the other species this spine is cone-shaped and has, therefore, a circular basal section.

Description: Adult: Length of each forewing 4 mm. General coloration light brown.

Male genitalia: Anterior margins of sternite IX concave; posterolateral margins of segment IX convex, slightly undulate ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 , ix). Base of each intermediate appendage slightly narrower than median part, apex broad ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 , iap). Each preanal appendage with mesolateral process narrow at base ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 , mlp); dorsolateral process slightly curved, directed distad ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 , dlp); mesoventral process wide at base, gradually thinner toward apex ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 , mvp). Inferior appendages short, angulate, each with apex as nearly as broad as basal part ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 , ia); subapicomesal lobe low, bearing flat, triangular spine with broad base ( Fig. 1G View FIGURE 1 , as); internal lobe rounded ( Fig. 1G View FIGURE 1 , il). Phallus tubular; dorsal phallic sclerite Y-shaped, short, with posterior arms thick and anterior arm thicker and curved ventrad ( Figs 1H, 1I View FIGURE 1 , ds).

Material examined. Holotype: Male : BOLIVIA: Laguna Belen, near Trinidad, 14°27’29’’S, 64°51’41’’W, 26.v.2003 (CBGP). GoogleMaps

Paratypes: BRAZIL: Am. Castanho, 101 Km SW Manaus, 25–26.i.1979, O.S. Flint Jr., 1 male (USNM). SURINAM: Corapinerkreen Republick, 9–11.ix.1971, D.C. Geijskes, 1 male (USNM) .

Etymology. The name is a Latin adjective referring to the type country ( Bolivia).
