Taxonomical note.

Comparisons between the type material of Currala bahiensis and Liogonyleptoides minensis allowed us to conclude that they are synonymous. Liogonyleptoides minensis is a species that can be easily diagnosed among gonyleptines by the relatively larger size, body dorsally rounded, without tubercles on corners, presence of scutal area IV; femur III curved (instead of sigmoid); male femur IV with a long, robust dorsobasal apophysis and a prolateral one that is curved dorsally on distal third. The genus Currala is now composed only by its type species Currala spinifrons Roewer, 1927.
