Family Glossosomatidae Wallengren, 1891

This family is represented in the Neotropics by 11 genera and more than 270 species ( Holzenthal and Calor 2017; Blahnik and Armitage 2019). In Panama, three genera are known ( Culoptila Mosley, 1954, Mortoniella Ulmer, 1906, and Protoptila Banks, 1904), and 31 total species. The genus Mortoniella has been treated comprehensively for the neotropics in a series of revisions by Blahnik and Holzenthal (2008, 2011, 2017). This genus is represented in Panama by 16 species ( Flint 1974; Blahnik and Holzenthal 2008; Blahnik and Armitage 2019). Herein we add one new country record for this genus.
