Sarcodexia notata Lopes, 1953b: 230 . Venezuela, Caracas. Holotype male, in BMNH (not examined).

Description. Male. Head. Ocellar setae stronger than postoculars. Outer vertical seta equal to postoculars. Orbital setae black. Three frontal setae situated below the dorsal limit of the lunule in lateral view. Genal setae black dorsally, yellow or white ventrally. First two rows of occipital setae black, others yellow. Thorax. Chaetotaxy: acrostichals = 0 + 1, dorsocentrals = 3 + 3, intra-alars = 2 + 3 (anterior one shorter), supra-alars = 5 + 3, basal scutellars = 3. Prosternum and posterior surface of hind coxa with black setae. Antero-ventral scutellar setae black. Three katepisternal setae. Postalar wall with only black setae. Lower calypter white or hyaline, without a fringe of long hair-like setae along outer margin. Mid femur with a ctenidium. Antero-dorsal surface of mid tibia with 2 median setae and 1 apical seta. Hind femur without a black patch of setae on anterior surface near apex, male hind femoral organ without setae set in a patch, with a row of antero-ventral and a row of postero-ventral setae. Hind tibia antero-dorsally with 1 seta in the basal third, 1 in the middle third and 1 preapical. Abdomen. Postero-ventral seams between T3/T4 and T4/T5 parallel. Posterior seam of T5 not projected posteriorly and ventrally. T5 with golden microtrichosity. Abdomen in lateral view with golden microtrichosity. ST1+3 with only black setae. Sternite II, III and IV with long setae on the posterior surface. Three lateral setae on each side of T4. Two long setae on the dorsal surface of abdominal T5. Terminalia. ST5 orange. Medial margin of ST5 ∩-shaped. Inner margins of ST5 arms straight. Inner margins of ST5 arms without patches of setae. Syntergosternite 7+8 as long as high in lateral view, black with golden microtrichosity. Epandrium bright orange. Cercus brown proximally and dark brown distally. Cercus in lateral view progressively narrowing towards the apex, with the distal half of the dorsal margin slightly curved. Cercus without setae modified into spines ventrally. Cercal apex acute in lateral view. Surstylus orange, triangular, with a rounded apex. Postero-distal surface of surstylus equally sclerotized as the remaining surface. Pregonite elongated, with a rounded apex. Basi- and distiphallus connected by a desclerotized strip. Juxta with long juxtal lateral plate with three slender juxtal horns. Basal horn slightly curved, as long as the others horns. The bifurcation giving origin to the juxtal lateral plates is deep and leaves the lateral plates not very close to each other. Distiphallus with a pair of lateral styli separated, each with a longitudinal cleft. Vesica projecting into a membranous plate-like structure of almost the same length as the juxta. Vesica distally bilobed.

Distribution. NEOTROPICAL— Bolivia, Venezuela.

Material examined. Bolivia: 1 male, Coroico, 07.ix.1947, H. Merubia ( NRM) .
