Remarks. The body spoted color pattern of T. quinquedentomucronata sp. nov. resembles that of T. ocellata Soto-Adames, 2015 from Mexico (see Soto-Adames, 2015: 11), but the new species is more similar to T. bessoni ( Thibaud & Najt 1988) and T. cotopaxiana ( Thibaud & Najt 1988) by the presence of 5 main mucronal teeth, or even to T. sauron Soto-Adames, Jordana & Baquero, 2014 by prelabral chaetae ciliate, labral papillae present, Th II with 3 mac in p3 complex, Abd IV with 4 medial mac (A3, A5, B5–6), unguis b.t. abruptly pointed and larger than the other teeth, and unguiculus ai lamella truncate ( Table 2 View TABLE ). However, T. quinquedentomucronata sp. nov. differs from these last three species by body color with blue pigments on all head (except for the dorsal side), Th II–III to coxae, Abd III with one transversal band, Abd IV with one central wings-shaped spot, and femur III pigmented anteriorly, while T. cotopaxiana has pigments on antennae and head only; T. sauron has a central spot in Abd III, and the Abd IV pigmented posteriorly or with small spots; and T. bessoni is troglomorphic and lacks body pigment and eyes. The dorsal chaetotaxy of T. quinquedentomucronata sp. nov. differs from these species by head A3 and M2 mac absent (both present in T. ocellata and only M 2 in T. sauron ) and S3 mac present (absent in these species), Th II with 3 mac in p3 complex (5–6 in T. ocellata ), and Abd IV with 4 medial mac (3 in T. bessoni and T. cotopaxiana ). Trogolaphysa quinquedentomucronata sp. nov. also differs from these species by prelabral chaetae ciliate (smooth in T. bessoni ), basomedian and basolateral labial field with L2 chaeta ciliate (smooth in T. bessoni and reduced in T. sauron ), unguis b.t. abruptly pointed and larger than the other teeth (minute in T. bessoni and normal in T. ocellata and T. cotopaxiana ), unguis b.t. and m.t. present (absent in T. bessoni ), unguiculus ai lamella truncate (acuminate in these species, except for T. sauron ), and and mucro with 5 main teeth (4 in T. ocellata and T. sauron ), of which il has 1–2 denticles (absent in all these species). Other differences between these species are summarized in Table 2 View TABLE , except for T. bessoni and T. ocellata (see Thibaud & Najt 1988, Soto-Adames & Taylor 2013 and Soto-Adames 2015).
