Synonym. Paulosawaya Martínez and D’Andretta, 1956: 346 (new synonym). Type species
Paulosawaya ornatissima Martínez and D’Andretta , by original designation.
Remark. The genus Paulosawaya was originally placed in the tribe Pachydemini by Martínez and D’Andretta (1956). Later it was transferred to the tribe Macrodactylini ( Martínez 1975) , but was considered incertae sedis by Katovich (2008). When I examined four paratypes of Paulosawaya ornatissima from the HAHC, it was immediately obvious that this species belongs in the genus Clavipalpus . These specimens match the latest definition of the genus Clavipalpus by Katovich (2008). The transfer is here made, placing the generic name Paulosawaya in synonymy with Clavipalpus .
